What if SL existed for another 100 years

[Bree Giffen]

If someone necro posted a thread from now into the forums 100 years in the future, one of the users at that time would reply, "You know everyone on that thread is dead right?"

What are your predictions of SL in the future? Let's see if they come true.

[Blush Bravin]

Lately I've been thinking about the future of AI and VR in relation to companions. I've seen the robot as lover, house keeper, what have you, in sci-fi movies. I've been thinking it will be much easier to create an AI that is only virtual rather than having to create a physical body for it as well. So, I'm guessing if SL or VR continues as we see it currently, we might well see computer driven companions replacing human companionship in virtual spaces.

100 years from now, people will be complaining about SL and saying it will die soon because Sansar is coming to replace it.

..or we’ve uploaded ourselves to Second Life, and only our bodies have died. “Contact me inworld” is the only option. See: Alfred Bester’s novel Ubik. (Ok, not simulations but psychic stuff in that book.)

• The best bits of Sansar are merged into SL.
• Blended alpha is deprecated.
• OpenGL is replaced with Metal.
• DrawCalls are markedly improved.
• We get full body immersion suits.
• The 4,000'th all-yellow SSP continent is added!
• XP Support is fully dropped in the TPV's.
• The LI calculations are fair and everyone is happy.
• Region crossings are solved.

Or we’ll be heads in jars, like on Futurama.

They should have touch by then.. So being able to slap the crap out of someone on the other side of the intranets will be more than just a dream..It will be possible!! \o/

'Torturing prims' used to mean something different to the way you used it. Here, let me explain. .....

I applaud your confidence in our expectation of life

   100 years from now, the amount of dedicated menswear designers will have doubled to four, but the two current ones will have gone out of business - and people will still be criticizing the fashion events for drowning us in tank tops and board shorts, or just giving us poses/tattoos/shapes.
