The future of artificial intelligence.
Do androids dream?
On Friday 21 February 2025, at around 20:45hrs UTC, I uploaded a question to Gemini 2.0 Flash. This is the free version that you can connect to using the Google search portal. It is distinct from Gemini Advanced, which you probably have to register to use and may have to pay for. If not now, at some point in the future.

Immortality 2.0: Can Science Defy Death in Our Lifetime?
What if death wasn’t the endgame? Imagine a world where wrinkles fade, organs regrow, and birthdays pile up without the ticking clock of mortality. Science fiction, right? Not quite. Today, February 20, 2025, researchers are chipping away at aging’s foundations with tools like gene editing, organ regeneration, and biotech breakthroughs. The dream of “Immortality 2.0” isn’t just a sci-fi trope—it’s a tantalizing possibility. But can science really defy death in our lifetime, or are we chasing a mirage? Let’s unpack the quest to outrun the reaper.

The Quantum Leap:
The future isn’t coming—it’s accelerating toward us, powered by a technology so disruptive it defies comprehension. Quantum computing, once a theoretical whisper in physics labs, is now a tangible force, promising to unravel problems that have stumped humanity for decades. Forget the binary world of zeros and ones; quantum computers operate in a realm of probabilities, harnessing the quirks of subatomic particles to process information at unimaginable speeds. As we stand on the brink of this quantum leap, the question isn’t if it will change our lives, but how profoundly—and whether we’re ready for the upheaval it could bring.

The Vertical Frontier: How Sky Cities Could Redefine Urban Living
The earth is filling up fast. With the global population inching toward 10 billion by mid-century, cities are bursting at the seams—sprawling outward, clawing upward, and choking on their own growth. Land is a finite resource, and as sea levels rise and arable acres shrink, humanity faces a stark choice: adapt or collapse. What if the answer isn’t more ground-level sprawl or even floating homes, but a leap into the sky? Enter the concept of sky cities—towering, self-contained ecosystems suspended above the earth, poised to revolutionize urban living and tackle the crises of overpopulation, climate change, and resource scarcity.

The Cities of Tomorrow: How Floating Homes Could Solve Overpopulation
The world is running out of room. With the global population hurtling toward 10 billion by 2050, cities are straining at the seams. Urban sprawl devours forests and farmland, housing crises push rents into the stratosphere, and coastal regions grapple with the twin perils of overcrowding and rising seas. Traditional solutions—building skyscrapers or sprawling suburbs—can only go so far. But what if the answer lies not on land, but on water? Floating homes, once a quirky novelty, are emerging as a radical blueprint for the cities of tomorrow, promising to ease overpopulation while reimagining how we live.

Success Through Sheer Discipline: Stories of Computer Science Legends
Success in any field requires talent, intelligence, and opportunity, but the real game-changer is discipline. Many of the world’s most successful computer scientists and tech entrepreneurs didn’t get to the top because they were naturally gifted. They got there because they showed up every day, worked relentlessly, and stuck to their goals—even when motivation ran out.
