What if ...
Hypothetical, no-nonsense and worthwhile: Listen to our small "What if"-scenarios about pretty much everything that could be different.
The "What- If"- scenarios closely resemble this logo that we created: Imagine a balloon is passing your way with the written question "What If.." on it. In our mind that captured many different situations, seriously and funny.
So what if ...
... earth's magnetic poles flip?
Massive earthquakes, rapidly changing climate and the extinction of species. All of those are consequences the earth’s population might has to face, when North goes south.
Throughout its existence earth already was confronted with hundreds of pole reversals, the last one being during Stone Age, 780,000 years ago.
... Artificial Intelligence Takes Over?
Have you heard about how Facebook needed to stop an experiment because their chatbots developed a new language the scientists could not understand? So what would happen if scientists aren’t careful enough once and AI has the possibility to get more powerful? Could that even happen? Or is it just a matter of time?
... your kitchen could talk?
Cooking. One word, for many mostly associated with just one other word, mess. I'm pretty sure almost everyone is familiar with the condition a kitchen can be in, after a good meal has been prepared, even if they have not been responsible for the chaos themselves.
... we could control nuclear fusion?
For a start, I want to tell you why it could indeed be important for humans to make nuclear fusion save and useful for generating power.
As the earth get's more and more polluted through the usage of fossil fuels every day, it get's more and more important to switch to green power sources, for example
Solar or wind power. The word nuclear might not be the first thing you associate with renewable and clean energy sources because of nuclear reactors.
These are infamous for accidents like Fukushima or Chernobyl. And obviously also the nuclear waste created by all these reactors.
... there were no wars?
Everyone knows that war is bad. But can you imagine a world, were we would never wage a war, and also never had one? Come, and explore this thought experiment with me.
... humans couldn't go into sunlight
You all know the stories about Dracula and other vampires. They can't go into the sun, otherwise they will die. But what would happen, if all human being would be allergic to the sunlight and couldn't spend time in the sun.
