Biotech-based aging reversal. Scientists are already reprogramming cells to act younger, and early tests in animals show real promise. It’s not full-on immortality, but slowing or even reversing aging at the cellular level is way closer than most people realize—maybe decades, not centuries.
All the big tech companies are pretty interested in messing around with our brains, like neural ink etc. I think procedures where we can get chips to make us half robots, half humans will happen scarily soon.
artificial intelligence that can design its own successor which is even more capable and can design an even more intelligent successsor. it has the potential to be the last thing humans ever need to invent and it’s probably 4 years away
I hope useful and easily accessible quantum computers. Not ones which are just good for cracking passwords/encryption. But ones that can Assess and solve highly complex scientific mysteries quickly.
Also, I think AI which can create more advanced AI would be dope. I could see exponential progress, if that becomes a reality. Possible exponential detriment, in any case, I’m here for it.

Cheap fusion
Mammoths next
After direwolves
AI agents (that are actually useful)

How about a cure for baldness already?
My vote is for Battery technology. It makes sense because there has been so much investment and the manufacturing ecosystem is already there.
AI is about to explode with cheap intelligence smarter than humans.
