I believe the next generation will not have the same relationship with the music industry that we currently do.

The next program could be one that creates a song based on your current mood, job, task, etc. Maybe even use lyrics you write. That would be something.

Commercial real estate owners and service industry around these complexes are lobbying for returning back to 2019 ASAP, but it isn't that simple, especially for IT/Tech industry. Hard to justify keeping these people unhappy, stuck in traffic, doing less work than if WFH just so the offices are used. Interesting times!

It should be possible eventually to choose mental abilities for offspring including IQ, musical ability, and other traits. Further down the road, a redesign of the human brain might strengthen areas responsible for intelligence, memory and cooperation and make emotions, tribalism and other parts less dominant.

If you zoom out from your human avatar you will see that the AI Machines have taken over and enslaved humanity already. Nearly every human is attached to a synthetic intelligence network. More and more humans go to work using computers and in fact can't function in their job without them. If you look at USA you can see where synthetic intelligence networks have already evenly divided the entire country against itself in two majority camps to keep things simple and save on bandwidth.
