Christmas in the tropics

Hah...You're wrong. I'm not going to complain about the heat.

Cause I like it.

No, I'm going to complain about my Christmas present. My bad.

My friend got me a lovely new smart phone for Christmas.

Well, I think I'm too stupid to own a smart phone.

It's faster than my desk top computer.

It's the latest, fastest, smartest, cutest little thing you ever saw.

I'm afraid of it.

I know it's watching me.

It tells people where I am.

It remembers what I like and who I talked to.

It makes suggestions.

I don't know where to hide..............

I don't love mine either, but have got used to the convenience of it now.

Sliding scale - our electronic toys are getting smarter as we get stupider. In the future we will wake up when the smartphone alarm goes off, go where it tells us to go (work, appointments, shops), stop to eat the food it has suggested, and communicate with other smartphone users, via smartphone.

The future smartphone will tell us what to wear, hire a driverless car to collect us, and we will stop work to be taken at mealtimes to an eating centre where our food - a nutritious and tasty blend of proteins, carboydrates and essentials - has been pre-ordered. 90% of the human race will be fully cared for by automation, and will be living 90 or 100 years as standard.

However, increasingly as automation takes over the tasks which the 90% can manage, there will be sweeping disastrous outbreaks of flu or similar infections, which wipe out, slowly but steadily, the useless, then the slightly useful, then the fairly useful, long before the 90 years expected lifespan.

Older people will watch all this aghast, and be sneered at by the younger generation who will, in the future, become the older generation watching future breakthroughs aghast.

Enjoy your smartphone rolling on the floor laughing
