20 Technological Advancements That Should Have Been Achieved By Now, Or So We Thought? (3 of 4)

Multilingual Instant Translator

Another idea that is not impossible to develop is instant translation. While Google Translate is doing well, it has still not been able to properly convert languages and provide a proper meaning, adhering to the grammar of a particular language.

Let’s hope we are able to have it soon, since it isn’t really an impossible idea.

Flying Cars

We don’t even want to start on how much we believed that flying cars were practically our only future. Whenever we talked of the future, flying cars were always mentioned in the conversations. But the automobile industry has still a long way to go.

With Elon Musk sending a car into space, we can surely hope that he can make a flying Tesla soon!

Autonomous Cars

While we are speaking of cars, how can we forget self-driving cars? We always imagined that we would not undergo the hassle of learning to drive in the future. All we would need to do was to simply sit in the car and ask the Robo-car to take us to our destination.

In 2017 Google pulled a prank on us on April Fool’s Day by claiming that they are developing a self-driving bike in the Netherlands. Well, let’s hope this prank turns into a reality soon!

The Clone Machine

We did believe that animals can be cloned, and guess what, we have achieved the impossible by developing clones of animals like frogs, sheep, cats, pigs, mice, and cows.

But, we are still far behind the idea of human clones. The concept of human cloning was recently shown in Jurassic World 2. The idea of human cloning is very debatable, but we aren’t really hopeful that this will happen anytime soon.

3D Bioprinting

While we are talking about human cloning, it is absolutely necessary to talk about bioprinting. It is a brilliant technique wherein we can clone any muscle tissue or skin cells and we are successful in bioprinting. But we aren’t able to clone any human organ as of yet. If we are able to develop this technique of 3D bioprinting to clone organs, we would be able to eliminate the need of organ transfer. How freaking cool is that?
