As for artificial intelligence, I think will be and important technology because humans need help managing our environment. Therefore, I think we should plan to live side by side with synthetic life forms. Finally, I think travel portals will be and important technology because travel portals (through dimensions) are nothing new to existence. Therefore, I think we should plan to expand our thinking and embrace a very different existence.
