What if you could create your own VR (virtual reality) child or pet? What if you lived in VR 24 hours a day? What if you could choose immortality by the year 2045? Fact or fiction?
They say that 'truth is stranger than fiction'.
It is also said that anything that can be dreamed up can be made reality.
Are you aware of some of the technologies which are around these days, and how AI and VR are already - and potentially irrevocably - changing the future of how humans function on planet earth?

2015. The so called “rise of the machines” has started, and it looks like obtaining citizenship is the first step. A robot named “Sophia” has made history, as it became the first ever to be granted a full Saudi Arabian citizenship. Developed by AI specialist David Hanson of Hanson Robotics, Sophia’s appointment was made public during the Future Investment Initiative held in the Saudi Arabian capital of Riyadh.

According to the Singularity movement, we're fast approaching the moment when humans and machines merge. The date has been set at 2045, 26 years from now.
"Kurzweil believes that we're approaching a moment when computers will become intelligent, and not just intelligent but more intelligent than humans.
