Are we ready for our world to be made of glass?

This is what our world will be like soon, are we ready for this advancement? Below is a day made of glass part 2.

Everything will be a lot more breakable that's for damn sure.

Paperless, cashless, thoughtless…

I doubt much of this "advanced" tech will trickle down to the poor, except the total surveillance aspects.

Unblinking eyes on every pole and building.

For the richer elite, they will have very thing preselected, pre arranged, pre positioned, no choice involved, everything decided for you…

How advanced is that?

I believe this is already on board,

day made of glass

It´s flexible if they want it to be. The car cockpit looks neat. Saves weight, too if it´s a polymer glas and not really actual glas.

There are some nice things that can be done with this. The transparent life, is another topic....

If there is no money to be made from it then no it won't be happening anytime soon. We seem to have a problem putting things out that would be beneficial to our society and does not make as much money. Looks cool though!

I agree with you, when a glass product breaks like your iPhone you go out and replace it. So the company will profit even more. Apple smiles when a glass breaks on your IPhone. They really smile when you get it wet!

The other thread is part one, I linked to part 2. Thank you for pointing this out. Inchanges the op to part two.

I agree with you, living life that way is mindless. Kids stop thinking, people become more lazy, cash from society is removed and we as humans are in a slave world to glass.

Your point is right on. If they do not make money it will not be out. All the components of the day made of glass are here. One day it will be here. Look at the I pad. I you and I were talking 20 years ago and I told you soon you will be able to swipe your finger on a glass screen and video chat with your sister who lives in China would you believe me?

Thats a very interesting vision,fanciful and quite immersive. However, how would this be paid for? We can't even maintain the upkeep on our roads, bridges and other infrastructure. Looks like a very first world, haves/have not scenario.

Surely the company's will not pay. I do think in the future schools will start to purchase this technology!

Out of any field in the world medical has the most money to spend. Hospitals will adapt as well.

I agree roads and bridges need to be replaced first.

There probably isn't enough of the materials needed to make smart-screen technology on this scale. They're pretty scarce as they are.

a reply to: Ohanka

Think about the amount of data it would take. I don't think our dsl or our internet could handle this flow of data!

Thank you so much! I copied the YouTube code 3 times but it said error. Can I kindly ask you how you did that the right way?

Cool stuff too bad half of it will be likely crippled to not work with each other do to propitiatory measures to keep you locked into their ecosystems.

If you quote my response with the video you will see the tag I used.

But what you do is

1. Click the You Tube button all the way to the right when you bring up the reply feature.
2. Click OK then input the youtube number which is typically at the end of the string.

Your url was ttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jZkHpNnXLB0&app=desktop

I took the jZkHpNnXLB0 part of the url and input it when prompted with "Please enter the YouTube video number" after clicking the youtube button.

They show the glass wall blackboard and 'light table' class work 'environment'. The teachers only function is to start the show, the lesson is preplanned pre written, it appears frame by frame and everyone goes where it takes them. They show the teacher in each clip pointing at the blackboard or the light table but really shes just there to ferry them along with whatever 'lesson' is being imparted.

There is no individual creativity going on in their 'perfect world' just going along with it as one 'class'. Keep up or don't, participate or don't. It will fail like every other stylized advertisement.

If I were a kid in that environment, I'd cut class (or go nuts).

We must be a dying breed, self determination, freedom to choose, innovate….zzzt.
