How we’ll invent the future, by Bill Gates – MIT

We asked Gates to choose this year’s list of inventions that will change the world for the better. February 27, 2019

I was honored when MIT Technology Review invited me to be the first guest curator of its ….
10 Breakthrough Technologies.

Narrowing down the list was difficult.

I wanted to choose things that not only will create headlines in 2019
but captured this moment in technological history—
which got me thinking about how innovation has evolved over time.

My mind went to—of all things—the plow.
Plows are an excellent embodiment of the history of innovation.
Humans have been using them since 4000 BCE ​when Mesopotamian farmers aerated the ​soil with sharpened sticks.
We’ve been slowly tinkering with and improving them ever since, and today’s plows are technological marvels.

But what exactly is the purpose of a plow?

As well as his introductory essay, read Bill Gates’s conversation with the ​editor in chief Gideon Lichfield.
Below are his picks for the 10 Breakthrough Technologies.

Why it matters Conventional chemotherapies take a heavy toll on healthy cells and aren’t always effective against tumors
Key players BioNTech
Genentech
Availability In human testing
The treatment incites the body’s natural defenses to destroy only cancer cells by identifying mutations unique to each tumor
Scientists are on the cusp of commercializing the first personalized cancer vaccine. If it works as hoped, the vaccine, which triggers a person’s immune system to identify a tumor by its unique mutations, could effectively shut down many types of cancers.
By using the body’s natural defenses to selectively destroy only tumor cells, the vaccine, unlike conventional chemotherapies, limits damage to healthy cells. The attacking immune cells could also be vigilant in spotting any stray cancer cells after the initial treatment.

CAFO – IS OBSOLETE & WASTEFUL!
** Meat production spews tons of greenhouse gas and uses up too much land and water.
Is there an alternative that won’t make us do without?

ALTERNATIVE – GO BACK TO THE ‘SUSTAINABLE’ FARM IN EVERY COMMUNITY CITY & STATE!

The better environmental case can be made for plant-based meats from companies like Beyond Meat and Impossible Foods (Bill Gates is an investor in both companies), which use pea proteins, soy, wheat, potatoes, and plant oils to mimic the texture and taste of animal meat.
Beyond Meat has a new 26,000-square-foot (2,400-square-meter) plant in California and has already sold upwards of 25 million burgers from 30,000 stores and restaurants.

According to an analysis by the Center for Sustainable Systems at the University of Michigan, a Beyond Meat patty would probably generate 90% less in greenhouse-gas emissions than a conventional burger made from a cow. —

Fear Mongering?
Why it matters 15 million babies are born prematurely every year; it’s the leading cause of death for children under age five
Key player Akna Dx
Availability A test could be offered in doctor’s offices within five years
A simple blood test can predict if a pregnant woman is at risk of giving birth prematurely.
Our genetic material lives mostly inside our cells. But small amounts of “cell-free” DNA and RNA also float in our blood, often released by dying cells. In pregnant women, that cell-free material is an alphabet soup of nucleic acids from the fetus, the placenta, and the mother.

Practical and affordable ways to capture carbon dioxide from the air can soak up excess greenhouse-gas emissions. ​Even if we slow carbon dioxide emissions, the warming effect of the greenhouse gas can persist for thousands of years.

To prevent a dangerous rise in temperatures,
the UN’s climate panel now concludes​ the world will need to remove as much as 1 TRILLION tons of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere this century…
ELIMINATE GMO – SO GOES CAFO INDUSTRIAL FARMS & MOST OF THE CO2…

PASTURED ANIMALS PRODUCE FERTILIZER!!!
Why it matters 2.3 billion people lack safe sanitation, and many die as a result
Key players Duke University
University of South Florida
Biomass Controls
California Institute of Technology
Availability 1-2 years

Energy-efficient toilets can operate without a sewer system and treat waste on the spot…
About 2.3 billion people don’t have good sanitation. The lack of proper toilets encourages people to dump fecal matter into nearby ponds and streams, spreading bacteria, viruses, and parasites that can cause diarrhea and cholera. Diarrhea causes one in nine child deaths worldwide.

** Robot dexterity
Why it matters If robots could learn to deal with the messiness of the real world, they could do many more tasks.
Key Players – OpenAI 
Carnegie Mellon University
University of Michigan
UC Berkeley
Availability 3-5 years
Robots are teaching themselves to handle the physical world.
For all the talk about machines taking jobs, industrial robots are still clumsy and inflexible. A robot can repeatedly pick up a component on an assembly line with amazing precision and without ever getting bored—but move the object half an inch, or replace it with something slightly different, and the machine will fumble ineptly or paw at thin air.

** New-wave nuclear power

BOB MUMGAARD/PLASMA SCIENCE AND FUSION CENTER/MIT
Advanced fusion and fission reactors are edging closer to reality. 
New nuclear designs that have gained momentum in the past year are promising to make this power source safer and cheaper. Among them are generation IV fission reactors, an evolution of traditional designs; small modular reactors; and fusion reactors, a technology that has seemed eternally just out of reach. Developers of generation IV fission designs, such as Canada’s Terrestrial Energy and Washington-based TerraPower, have entered into R&D partnerships with utilities, aiming for grid supply (somewhat optimistically, maybe) by the 2020s.

One man’s two-decade quest to suck greenhouse gas out of the sky
Klaus Lackner’s once wacky idea increasingly
looks like an essential part of solving climate change.

JUST VOTE TO BAN GMO & SHUT DOWN THE CAFO INDUSTRIAL FARM!!
Still, if it’s used in synthetic fuels or sodas, the carbon dioxide will mostly end up back in the atmosphere.

The ultimate goal is to lock greenhouse gases away forever.

FOREVER BAN GMO & GREENHOUSE GASES BY RADICAL CHANGE OF FARMING …

RID THE PLANET OF AN UNWORKABLE​ SOLUTION TO FEEDING THE PLANET!

BACK TO THE PASTURE – COWS PRODUCE VITAMIN D & OMEGA 3 TO SUPPORT ]THE PREFRONTAL​ BRAIN & CNS!!!

Some could be nested within products like carbon fiber, polymers, or concrete, but far more will simply need to be buried underground, a costly job that no business model seems likely to support.
In fact, pulling CO2 out of the air is, from an engineering perspective, one of the most difficult and expensive ways of dealing with climate change.
But given how slowly we’re reducing emissions, there are no good options left. —James Temple

** An ECG on your wrist
Regulatory approval and technological advances are making it easier for people to continuously monitor their hearts with wearable devices.
Fitness trackers aren’t serious medical devices. An intense workout or loose band can mess with the sensors that read your pulse. But an electrocardiogram—the kind doctors use to diagnose abnormalities before they cause a stroke or heart attack— requires a visit to a clinic, and people often fail to take the test in time.

** Smooth-talking AI assistants
Why it matters AI assistants can now perform conversation-based tasks like booking a restaurant reservation or coordinating a package drop-off rather than just obey simple commands
Key players Google
Alibaba
Amazon
Availability 1-2 years

New techniques that capture semantic relationships between words are making machines better at understanding natural language.
We’re used to AI assistants—Alexa playing music in the living room, Siri setting alarms on your phone—but they haven’t really lived up to their alleged smarts. They were supposed to have simplified our lives, but they’ve barely made a dent. They recognize only a narrow range of directives and are easily tripped up by deviations.
