Robert: These designs are really futuristic-looking.
Mara: I’m trying to be forward-thinking and imagine what the world will be like in 50 to 100 years.
Robert: You think that the world will be filled with space-age gadgets like these?
Mara: That’s the natural evolution of technology for the next 100 years, I think. We will continue to develop labor-saving devices, simpler ways of doing everyday tasks, and to improve artificial intelligence.
Robert: I’m not sure I want to live in a world that looks like that. It seems so cold and impersonal.
Mara: That’s only because most of us have a fear of the unknown.
Robert: That’s me in a nutshell. I’d rather return to a simpler way of life with as little innovation and technology as possible.
Mara: Like modern sanitation and transportation?
Robert: Well, I want to go back in time with some things, but keep my conveniences.
Mara: So you want to pick and choose? That shouldn’t be a problem when we figure out time travel.
