The future is here… for now, anyway. In this day and age, things are rapidly changing and technology is evolving faster and crazier than ever. Things exist now that people could have never even imagined 20 or 30 years ago. It's pretty amazing and kind of terrifying at the same time. It also makes it kind of difficult to even think about what the future from now on will look like. With all of this along with the development of AI it is hard to say what the future might hold, anything seems possible.

Back in the day, though, the things people thought would be developed in the future were kind of crazy and super interesting to see. Some of the classic things everyone thought would exist by now are flying cars, being able to live on other planets, and things like virtual reality. Some of these things do exist in the world but others have yet to be made… maybe someday they will appear in all of the stores.
