Technology Is Modifying Humanity

What role will old-fashioned sex play in our future?

  • Technology is changing society faster than at any point in the history of humanity.
  • CRISPR will result in the capability of creating genetically enhanced humans.
  • Brain-computer interfacing will enable us to reach super-human capability.
  • Advancing sex tech will likely interface with these technologies to transform intimacy.

You’ve heard this story before. Someone living in 1922 would be completely disoriented if she had the opportunity to live a day in 2022. One hundred years may seem like a long time, but in the history of humanity, it’s almost meaningless. I would guess that our 1922 transplant would be terrorized by self-driving cars, stunned by virtual reality porn, and confused by Alexa giving her a weather report – all rather mundane aspects of life today. After all, she was just getting used to radio, Band-Aids, and frozen food – she hadn’t yet even seen a TV! How might the next 100 years change our experience of living?
