Our lives in 2025: What the world will be like in 10 years’ time

Our world is being transformed by rapid advances in sciences and technology that are touching every aspect of our lives.
So what changes could these developments bring about for life as we know it? We only have to look around us to see just how much can change in a relatively short space of time.
Our lives have been shaped by developments which most of us couldn’t have imagined a decade ago. For example, handheld devices such as smartphones and tablets now allow us to have live video conversations with our friends, translate instantaneously between multiple languages, watch full length videos and monitor
Robots Developed That Can Think For Themselves, Scientists Say

The intelligent machine learns by itself from scratch using a trial-and-error approach that is reinforced by the reward of a score in the game. This is fundamentally different to previous game-playing “intelligent” computers, the researchers said.
The system of software algorithms is called Deep Q-network and has learned to play 49 classic Atari games such as Space Invaders and Breakout, but only with the help of information about the pixels on a screen and the scoring method.
The researchers behind the development said that it represents a breakthrough in artificial intelligence capable of learning from
