Frequently asked questions

You’d think infinite computing power would turn us into enlightened beings holding hands around a holographic campfire. Spoiler alert: It didn’t. We just have 8K resolution ways to ignore each other now.

Dating 2.0: Swipe culture is dead. In 2035, your Personal AI doesn’t just look at your profile; it scrubs your search history, genetic markers, and that embarrassing playlist you think no one knows about to find your "optimal mate." It’s efficient, sure, but there’s nothing quite as humbling as an algorithm telling you your soulmate is a toaster-repair technician in Idaho. (And yes, the "Synthetics"—hyper-realistic android companions—are a booming industry. Don't ask. Don't look at the receipts.)

The Grift Goes On: Human nature remains undefeated. Good people still exist, but the scammers have leveled up. They don't want your money; they want your biometric hash. Social media isn't just text anymore; it's a sensory-overload nightmare where teenagers bully each other in VR and bots argue about politics with more nuance than our elected officials.

The History Lesson (The "oops" moment): We’re all still a little jumpy after the "Tactical Nuke Incident" of Ukraine ’26. It turns out, nothing stops a global conflict faster than actual radiation. The ceasefire was immediate, but the collective PTSD? That’s permanent. We stopped fighting over borders and started fighting over server space.

Bureaucracy Fails: Remember when the EU tried to force Digital IDs on everyone to stop the chaos? Total failure. It turns out, you can’t regulate a generation raised by hackers. The kids jailbroke the IDs in a week, and now the government just pretends it’s working while everyone routes their data through the Cayman Islands.

The Verdict: 2035 is a mixed bag. We have fusion power and colonies on Mars, but we still haven't figured out how to be nice to each other. But hey, at least the robot therapists are cheap. (Just don't tell them your secrets; they upload everything to the cloud.)

Remember those soul-crushing office jobs where you spent your days staring at a screen, dreaming of escaping to a virtual beach? Well, good news! In 2035, most of those jobs are done by robots. (Don't worry, we still have plenty of ways to make a living. We just get to be more creative now.)

Thanks to automation and AI, those repetitive, mind-numbing tasks are a thing of the past. (Unless you're into that sort of thing, in which case, there's probably a niche market for "professional button-pushers" somewhere in the metaverse.)

But don't worry, we haven't all been replaced by robots (yet). The job market has simply evolved. Now, the hottest gigs are in fields like:

• AI Ethics Consultant: Making sure those robots don't decide to take over the world (or at least, that they do it politely).

• Holographic Fashion Designer: Creating the latest trends in bioluminescent clothing and cybernetic accessories.

• Virtual Reality Therapist: Helping people cope with the existential angst of living in a hyper-connected world.

• Interdimensional Travel Agent: Planning exotic vacations to parallel universes and alternate timelines. (Just be sure to pack your anti-gravity swimsuit and your universal phrasebook.)

And remote work? It's the norm, baby! Thanks to holographic communication and super-fast internet, you can work from anywhere with a decent Wi-Fi signal. (Even that underwater research station in the Mariana Trench. Just watch out for those bioluminescent sharks.)

So, yeah, the job market in 2035 is a wild and wonderful place. Just be prepared to retrain your brain every few years, because in the future, the only constant is change. (Except for those pesky robot vacuum cleaners. They're still trying to take over the world, one dust bunny at a time.)

Remember those days when a "smart home" meant having a fridge that could dispense ice cubes? Oh, you sweet summer child. In 2035, our homes are basically sentient beings with a penchant for interior design and a healthy dose of sass.

→ Here's a glimpse into the average 2035 dwelling:

• Self-Cleaning Bacteria: Never scrub a toilet again! Our patented technology is coated with an engineered bacteria that devours dirt, grime, and those questionable stains your holographic pet unicorn left behind.

• Shape-Shifting Furniture: Tired of that lumpy sofa? Just tell your furniture to transform into a comfy hammock, a futuristic beanbag chair, or a replica of the Iron Throne. (Just be careful not to get stuck in "lava lamp mode.")

• Personalized Entertainment Systems: Forget boring old TVs. Our entertainment systems are fully immersive, with holographic projections, haptic feedback, and even personalized scent experiences. (Just imagine watching a nature documentary while smelling the fresh scent of pine needles and feeling the virtual breeze on your face. Ah, technology.)

• Robot Chefs: Say goodbye to takeout menus and hello to gourmet meals prepared by your personal robot chef. (Just be sure to program it with your dietary restrictions. Nobody wants to accidentally eat a gluten-free, lactose-free, soy-free, fun-free pizza.)

• AI-Powered Personal Stylists: Never have a fashion faux pas again! Your AI stylist will analyze your body type, your personality, and the latest trends to create the perfect outfit for any occasion. (Just be prepared for some bold choices. Bioluminescent jumpsuits are all the rage this season.)

So, yeah, homes in 2035 are basically like living in a sci-fi movie. (Except with more robot butlers and fewer alien invasions. Hopefully.)

Remember those days when you had to actually go to a grocery store to buy food? (And then try to figure out how to carry all those bags without dislocating your shoulder?) Yeah, those days are so over. In 2035, food magically appears in your kitchen, ready to be devoured. (Okay, it's not actual magic, but it's pretty darn close.)

Here's the lowdown on the culinary scene in 2035:

• Vertical Farming: Forget sprawling fields and grumpy farmers. Now, our food also grows in sleek, high-tech towers that can be built anywhere, from your backyard to the top of that abandoned skyscraper downtown. (Just try not to let the pigeons get in. They have a tendency to disrupt the hydroponic systems.)

• Lab-Grown Meat: No more guilt trips about eating those adorable little piggies. Now, our meat is grown in labs, with no animal cruelty and a significantly reduced carbon footprint. (Just don't ask about the "mystery mush" they use to grow it. Some things are better left unknown.) Also not a substitute for the real thing, but hey, Capitalism!

• Personalized Nutrition: Forget generic diets and calorie counting. Now, your AI nutritionist analyzes your DNA, your activity levels, and your taste preferences to create a personalized meal plan that's optimized for your unique needs. (Just be prepared for some unusual combinations. Kale-infused chocolate cake, anyone?)

• A.I. Hot-pots: Okay, we're not quite at Star Trek levels of food replication yet, but we're getting there. These handy devices can whip up a variety of basic meals with just a few voice commands. (Just don't try to replicate a five-course gourmet feast. You might end up with a culinary singularity.)

So, grub in 2035 is convenient, healthy, and occasionally a bit bizarre. But hey, isn't that what the future is all about?

Solo Activities:

• Augmented Reality Adventure Suit: Step into your living room and engage in physical activities mirrored in a digital world. Run, jump, and dodge in real life while exploring sci-fi landscapes, medieval castles, or racing through space. The suit tracks your movements, providing a full-body workout while you're lost in adventure.

• Virtual Reality Park Exploration: Enjoy a solo hike or jog in your local park, but with a twist. Your VR headset transforms the park into exotic locales or futuristic cities, where you can interact with holographic creatures or solve puzzles set in the environment, all while getting some fresh air.

• Holo-Rec™ Solo Mode: Use the Holo-Rec™ for an immersive solo experience where you can watch your favorite shows or play games in a 3D environment. For example, you could be part of a space opera, physically dodging laser blasts while watching the show.

Group Activities:

• AR Park Team Challenges: Gather with friends at designated AR zones in local parks for team-based activities. You could participate in treasure hunts where clues appear in augmented reality, or engage in obstacle courses where teamwork is key to success.

• Augmented Reality Adventure Suit Group Mode: Sync your suits with friends for a cooperative adventure. Whether it's battling in a shared digital world or racing through a virtual obstacle course, the physical interaction combined with digital elements creates a unique social experience.

• Interactive Movie Nights: With Holo-Rec™, groups can watch movies together where each person can choose their level of interaction. Some might prefer to sit back and watch, while others can choose to participate in the action, like joining a dance-off in a musical or solving mysteries in a detective film, making movie nights a lively social event.
