- Smart homes are prominent within this area.
- Smart mirrors are something that are up and coming. Done w/ a raspberry pi.
- Pressed touch screens, such as the Cintiq or the current iPhone screen. Not necessarily new, but can provide many different options for screen-using objects that may be implemented.
- Holograms! Yes, HOLOGRAMS! Michael Jackson's Slave to the Rhythm performance was perhaps one of the largest display and usage of holograms ever. I will note that holograms, since we are limiting things UNTIL technology advances to this point, must be contained in glass like they always have. This can be used for holographic meetings, performances, and even plays. Maybe even cross communication. Please note that Michael Jackson's preformance was known as a pepper's ghost performance, but not a hologram. Even so, the programming for this 'hologram' was done and augmented
- Anyways, I should stop explaining! Leave it up to y'all.
Move onto balancing, we need to have limits.
What would you think the limits would be to prevent a borderline advantage or disadvantage between power-wielding, humans, and augmented humans?
Quote:- Like previously stated, augmented humans will become the dominant class because they will be superior to humans intellectually, while still having sentience.And because of this, the humans without powers will be more inclined to augment their own body to keep up with the technology that is up and coming. Though, I would like to note this: we, as from a staff perspective, would have to limit the technology and advancements to a certain point.
Quote:- Most of human society will be run by AI, like how the stock market in current time today is run by AI. In this group, this would mean that AI would run everything from the economy to the police, and the augmented humans are the ones monitoring it / tweaking it / making it better.Ran by technology basically! Here are some modern day things ran by technology:

Quote:- Regular humans will essentially be useless to the "grand order" of things, and each individual will only be useful for their skills that are better than what AI can do. Because of the fact there are very few jobs that humans are better than a fully realized AI, this means that most of the population is homeless / jobless / ect. The remaining humans are still inferior to the augmented human class, but aren't piss broke.- Also, I would note that augmented humans would be treated as a mutated human(sort of). Yes, they wouldn't be born with these enhancements, but they would be made overtime. Some may provide little to no enhancement, but for aesthetic purposes.
Quote:- Humans naturally treat all other animals as inferior - while pets have luxuries, most Western societies take extremely poor care of their livestock, and developing countries are following suit. Because of this, it's predicted that augmented humans will treat regular humans as inferiors.To point out that we would need to balance this out.
