Stephen Hawking and the prophecies that startle humanity

Stephen Hawking is a famous British physicist with great contributions to science. He is the author of A Brief History of Time, one of the most famous popular science books of all time.

Stephen Hawking devoted his life to deciphering the mysteries of the universe. He left behind a huge legacy of research on cosmology, astronomy and theoretical physics, such as Hawking radiation, black holes, etc.

Physicist and astronomer Stephen Hawking passed away but left behind many predictions for humanity. Up to now, his prophecies about climate change, life on other planets, artificial intelligence... have actually appeared in human life. So what predictions did Stephen Hawking make?

Artificial Intelligence (AI) Threatens Humans

Stephen Hawking believes that humans need to continue developing artificial intelligence (AI) but we need to pay attention to its dangers. It is like the genie has left the lamp. "I fear that AI could completely replace humans. With the current rapid development, AI will be a form of life that surpasses humans."

It seems his prophecy has come true.

The birth of ChatGPT - an artificial intelligence-based chatbot tool shocked the world. This tool can write a complete article, essay, thesis according to the user's request. It is gradually penetrating our lives and becoming irreplaceable.

Therefore, not only Stephen Hawking but also many other scientists are very concerned about the fact that artificial intelligence is gradually replacing humans.

Earth is destroyed

Stephen Hawking once said at an event at Cambridge University (UK): “The Earth is being destroyed, the global population is increasing at a rapid rate making this planet too small. I am not optimistic about the future of humanity.”

Stephen Hawking also emphasized that due to climate change and environmental destruction, the Earth is no longer an ideal planet to live on. Currently, the problem of climate change is also very difficult to control. Scientists warn of a "double disaster" that puts humanity in a state of alarm.

The United Nations has warned of a population explosion by the end of this century. According to their estimates, the world will have over 10 billion people. In addition, human health will be affected by climate change, global warming, super storms, droughts, floods, etc. If people do not act together, the living environment and the planet will no longer exist, and humanity will fall into extinction.

Humans living on Mars

In another speech in Norway, Stephen Hawking said: “If the human race is going to survive another million years, the future of humanity is to find new lands. We are running out of living space and the best place to go is to new worlds.

Humanity must seek life on other planets to save itself. I believe we will leave Earth and I hope that nations will unite to face this common challenge."

Scientists believe that this prophecy of Stephen Hawking will come true. Previously, he predicted quite accurately about world events such as many countries sending astronauts to the Moon in 2020. The Moon will be the planet for us to reach Mars in 2025.

Indeed, billionaire Elon Musk and his company SpaceX have been testing rockets to be able to send humans to Mars in the 2030s. NASA also announced a model of a house on Mars using 3D printing technology. Next June, NASA volunteers will live in this house for a year to test the living environment on the Red Planet.
