The Internet seems destined to win

I'm curious as to why you chose genetics? Are you looking it at primarily as a food supply augmentation of the whole gamut of what we may do with humans in the future?

I chose the atomic bomb as I feel it essentially changed how wars are fought indefinitely lest we all die in a fiery blaze. Superpowers can no longer wage total war on one another, we fight surgically and through proxy countries.

All of it. If it's possible to alter genetics in humans, then I think humans are most likely going to do it eventually. Might not be soon so it wouldn't be the most recent driver of evolution, but you did mention "concept" as an option too.

I picked Internet and VR.

I'm surprised nobody has picked VR, yet. I feel like the possibilities are endless for humans to experience the world in new and different ways through VR models. It could have awesome implications for education and research and greatly benefit the scientific literacy of future generations as it could make complex theoretical abstractions more readily available to intuitive comprehension.

I wanted to pick renewable energy as well, because that has the potential to become a huge social and economic driver in the near future. But, I don't think that people will actually change that much in the process of making the transition to renewable energy sources. We're just going to keep doing what we're doing with fossil fuels until we develop good enough technology to keep doing the same shit through renewable energy sources.

Vr and limb replacement.  I feel that these two technologies combine together create a future straight out of animes

If it's possible, human level artificial intellegence will quickly be surpassed by superhuman AI, and then further increases towards a being we can't even begin to fathom. Let's just how that they want to play nice when they get here.

Renewable energy has the potential to become extremely cheap. Free even, like 50s Americans were promised would be here by the new millennium. After free energy comes a post scarcity economy and utopia.... ah,  if only I could see it.

We already had someone who could've been responsible for renewable energy. The great Nikola Tesla. But that god damn gubment didn't seem to like that idea

The internet has allowed us to learn new things faster, sharing ideas among ourselves helps to further advance our ability to teach others capable of creating new ideas and all.

Genetic engineering is intrinsically playing with evolution as darwin knew it, so this cannot be discounted or excluded one bit. With new and emerging technologies, we will be able to manipulate CRISPR, allowing us to edit our own genome, ridding ourselves of genetic disorders like predispositions to cancer, neurofibromatosis, multiple sclerosis, schizophrenia, and likely even Autism. These genetic changes will carry on as well through our offspring.

I see advantages and disadvantags. People are becoming physically weaker and their meories are becoing weaker beause of the internet.
That isnt evolution
