Here's another prediction that we'll have sex and marriage with robots in the near future:

I think the disruptions will be more drastic than implied in the article, though--why have both a human and a robot sex partner, when a robot partner could much more easily fulfill all your fantasies, be ready and willing at all times, have an appearance to your exacting specifications, share your interests more closely, and come with none of the baggage of a human sex partner? I also think the same drastic change will come to friendships.
Technology is advancing at an exponential rate often called the "Law of Accelerating Returns." If futurist predictions prove correct, we'll have advanced molecular manufacturing by around 2025, and possibly the replacement of humanity by vastly advanced machines a decade or two later.
This is a chronicle of our journey to that future, one advancing technology article at a time. I post the more significant and interesting articles as I come across them.
