PEDESTRIAN.TV and Telstra have teamed up to offer you an exciting, yet terrifying glimpse into everything the future has to offer. If you’re curious about how you’ll be living in just a few years, you should absolutely suss out the video below.
The future is a scary, mildly cooked place, depending on how far ahead you wanna think look. Just a few years, though? Yep, still pretty wild.
According to Telstra’s chief scientist, Dr. Hugh Bradlow, most of us won’t even be driving our own cars. Your house, controlled by a personilsed virtual assistant, will give you a “five minute warning for you to get to the front door for your morning pickup, which is in a pooled autonomous vehicle,” he said.
Hell yeah, self-driving cars will be gettin’ us around like nobody’s business, but will you even be going to work?
Well, kind of. Many workers will trade a commute to an office for working from home. As our networks continue to get stronger, it will enable us to be far more flexible with our working arrangements.
What about leisure time, you ask? Strap yourself into some VR, my friend, because if you’re not catching up with friends or family in a virtual world, you’ll almost certainly be sussing out the latest sportsball game or concert without even leaving the house.
Have we piqued your curiosity yet? Of course we have. Watch the video below for more weird ways you’ll be living within the next 5 years.
