9 Education in 2030: The Possibilities 1. National programs for improving collective intelligence 2. Just in time knowledge and learning 3. Individualized education 4. Use of simulations 5. Continuous evaluation to prevent instability and/or becoming mentally ill. 6. Improved individual nutrition 7. Genetically increased intelligence 8. Use of global on-line simulations as a primary social science research 9. Use of public communications to reinforce pursuit of knowledge 10. Portable artificial intelligence 11. Complete mapping of human synapses to discover how learning occurs 12. Means for keeping adult brains healthier for longer 13. Chemistry for brain enhancement 14. Web Integrated life-long learning systems 16. Programs aimed at eliminating prejudice and hate 17. e-teaching 18. Smarter than human 19. Artificial microbes enhance intelligence

10 Likelihood of Possibilities Web 17.0 Integrated life-long learning systems Chemistry for brain enhancement Just in time knowledge and learning Use of public communications to reinforc Use of simulations e- Teaching Means for keeping adult brains healthier Individualized education Improved individual nutrition Global on-line simulations National programs for improving collecti Portable artificial intelligence devices Smarter than human computers Programs aimed at eliminating prejudice Continuous evaluation of individual learn Complete mapping of human synapses t Genetically increased intelligence Artificial microbes enhance intelligence Likelihood

11 Likelihood Most Likely: Web 17.0 Integrated life-long learning systems Chemistry for brain enhancement Just in time knowledge and learning Use of public communications to reinforce pursuit of knowledge Use of simulations Least Likely Genetically increased intelligence Artificial microbes enhance intelligence

12 Levels of Agreement The average judgments about likelihood range: from 79 percent (Web 17.0, an advanced form of Internet) to 30 percent (artificial microbes for enhancing intelligence) Almost all items had at least a respondent or two who: thought that the likelihood was zero thought the likelihood was about 100 percent A relatively high order of agreement with standard deviations ranging from 17.5 percent (the likelihood of an advanced Internet, Web 17.0) to the highest standard deviation, 27% (the likelihood of smarter than human computers)

37 Sir Arthur C. Clarke with Jose Cordeiro

38 The Three Laws of Sir Arthur C. Clarke First Law: When a distinguished but elderly scientist states that something is possible, he is almost certainly right. When he states that something is impossible, he is very probably wrong. Second Law: The only way of discovering the limits of the possible is to venture a little way past them into the impossible. Third Law: Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.

39 Technologies of the past 30 years ago Personal computers 20 years ago Cell phones 10 years ago Google What will happen in 10 years? In 20 years? In 30 years? Immortal (ageless) cells!

40 Aging as a disease? And curable?
