That already exists, does it? In National Defense and Security Research.

I think everyone having self driving cars may not take tok long as most cars sold today already equipped with LCD and google maps.

At which point height will become irrelevant, assuming the robot is hot

Speaking of robots, do you think we may see half robot and half human this century during our lifetime?

HAHAHAHAHA   . Maybe that can cure height dysphoria for a huge chunk of patients.

A safer, more innovative LL surgery may be more helpful to cure height dysphoria in some.

Actually our understanding of AI has jumped significantly over the past 7 years. Our smartphones already being supported by AI. Bixby, for example.

2042- AI with the same level of intelligence as a human
2042-longevity escape velocity for billionaires
2050- transdifferentiation of bone to hyaline cartilage (growth plate) with nanobots to grow proportionally and in a non-invasive way
2050- affordable hyper realistic human-like female robots
2065-singularity
2075-2080 affordable anti aging.
I don't think we would see reverse aging until the next century or it may come faster thanks to the singularity.
I say 2065 for the singularity because ray kurzweil was wrong about the technologies increasing in speed every 12 moths, it is really every 18 months.
For example he predicted self-driving cars by 2010 but they will come by 2025-2030. You just have to multiply Kurzweil predictions time differences from 2005 by 1.5x.

I hope the affordable antiaging could come sooner than 2070. Maybe around this mid century it will be available to the 70 percent of the world's population, just like COVID vaccination is available to almost everyone now.
