By 2050 virtually all delivery and hazardous environment operations will be conducted either by automated drones or telepresence. It is quite likely that sensors built into apparel will allow fast and intuitive control of such drones for everything from surgery and bomb disposal to controlling robots

Machine learning enabled by the ever increasing number-crunching power of computers, is a potentially stupendous breakthrough. That is why, by the year 2050, machines will take over much of the work of manufacturing and retail distribution. They can replace many white-collar jobs: routine legal work

Households will see the appearance of robot garbage collectors that "manually" sort rubbish, flattening, weighing, dehumidifying, and packaging it in the process. Garbage is given a marketable look. When sufficient quantity for a sale is reached, the robot automatically makes a deal with a private company

In 2050, remote working and telecommuting are finally legalized in most professions, even emergency paramedics (yes, this job still cannot be assigned to AI). When the call comes, the doctor puts on a set of VR glasses and gloves, and inhabits a robot avatar. The doctor sees with robot eyes and controls

Drones have started to play an even more important role in people’s lives. Now they carry out even the most mundane tasks. For example, an umbrella drone can be rented in any part of the city.

Robotics and artificial intelligence have become so advanced that human intervention into their daily activity is rarely required. Nonetheless, there are still some tasks that need a human operator and, in this case, the system transfers control to a human. The person’s movements are then scanned by

Robo-bugs maintaining order

By 2040, the drone-watchdogs overseeing public order in Singapore have become smaller. Now they are more like robotic ‘bugs’, equipped with an impressive array of cameras and sensors. These flying observers can pass through the smallest of gaps and constantly send information to the main city observation

Work is not for everyone

Most people don’t waste any more time on traffic on their way to and from work. There’s no point in spending the whole day in the office. Besides, not many people have an actual office anymore — or a full-time job. The job market has significantly changed, and many jobs have disappeared. Robot cleaners
