Machine Learning: - Image generation - Multi-modal AI: (one algorithm that can process text, video, images, audio, etc) Genomics - liquid biopsy / cfDNA: early cancer detection from a blood test, other diagnostics - fast (<1 hr) cheap (<$20) sequencing Machine learning + biology - AlphaFold++

Your genomics comment is the same as mine. We are about to enter a world different from what our parents could have imagined. For the better, I think. Look at illumina and their company Grail who has the Galleri blood test. Vial of blood and they can report if you have internal cancers that are not easily detectable otherwise. It has me legit excited!

Your list plus cellular aging, my other categories: os: hpc/highly tuned single purpose oses/unikernel machines will become more dominant filesystem: cxl on the horizon dax supported systems will become dominant then userspace+vendor shipped software will take over if they can catch up a common standard (intel already does good job) fantasy: hardware cooling: I believe we have a lot of room on having control on the heat, wanted to check alternative applications especially vacuum

  > os: hpc/highly tuned single purpose oses/unikernel machines will become more dominant As much as I like the idea, I'm not seeing this happening at all. What makes you say this will be more dominant?

    I dont see someone to have a reason refuse a reliable software solution which would speed up their existing application which could be done just by an software upgrade and reduce their bills at no cost, most benefical I think would be the tunning part for an average user. Its also compliment with many existing architectures today including cloud/container orchestration and the baremetal itself. But probably the key is still community/vendor support and standards , I dont know how it would affect maintainer life
