Watching the “Our Lives in 2025” and considering the time estimate of all those technologies coming into play, I think it’s possible. It would be possible for most of the technology in the video to be real by 2025. Our use of technology has already changed dramatically in a short period of time. Today, there are already high-tech refrigerators, we have the vacuum robots, we have cars that need to be charged (like the Tesla) and we are starting to use more and more sustainable energy like solar panels and wind mills. Considering that technology is moving at such a fast pace, it will probably continue its pace if not quicker. I would like to say that my life wouldn’t be the same as in the video. It’s a big transition and adjustment to rely so much on technology. And the video doesn’t talk about how the government plays into all this, so I am uncertain if I would use certain technologies. But to live in a world that is like the one in the video, it would be very time efficient and would probably be more beneficial to the world. I have to acknowledge that everyone does use technology in different ways, some less than others. Because of this, there is also a possibility for access and knowledge gap. Considering this, it might take a longer period of time to have everyone be at the same level as it was in the video. Everyone would have to be able to afford the new technology, which would prove to be difficult. Even in today’s society, there are some individuals who are all about getting the newest iPhone. But at the same time there are also other individuals who are unwilling to pay the price to stay up to date with the newest phone. Individuals have their own views and priorities in their life. Having the newest technology might seem not necessary to live an enjoyable life.
