Stephen Wolfram answers questions from his viewers about the future of science and technology as part of an unscripted livestream series, also available on YouTube here: https://wolfr.am/youtube-sw-qa

Questions include: Since you talked about the history of quantum mechanics, how about the future? - Will AI tutors take over all education? - Will traditional classrooms still exist 20 years from now, or will everything be online? - Are there enough guardrails in place for a K-12 application of AI tutors? - ​​So many kids need real information to grow on, which can be provided by AI, but there still needs to be human encouragement to motivate! - Do you think that medical ethics will change with the rapid advance of gene therapies? - Yes, scientists have indeed created glow-in-the-dark rabbits. - Could bacteria or viruses evolve to outsmart all our medical advancements? - Will AI-driven biological evolution make Darwinian evolution obsolete ? How do we prevent the automatic synthesis of biological virus by AI? - When (if at all) do you anticipate we'll have mostly "softwarized" humans themselves, meaning we can reprogram ourselves just as easily as we reprogram computer systems? - Speaking of biological evolution, can this help us humans break the age limit, let's say over two centuries?
