Since I started reading Yudkowsky/LessWrong heavily, I tend to have 2 strong predictions about the future:
1. AI will be invented sometime, and this will be a radical game-changer. In that everything after it will be hard/impossible to predict today.
2. We will eventually conquer death. Hopefully soon.
The second belief I find to be very, very strange for most people I talk to about this - people really can't imagine it, and most don't want to imagine it.
By the way, the other major prediction I have about the future - we will all be vegeterians, and future generations will look at us as barbarians for eating animals. I'm not a vegeterian, but I believe that this is inevitable, as soon as we have the technology to make animal-like foods without killing animals, both in terms of health and taste.
