Does anyone find the intro a little clunky?

I get that it's talking about 3000AD but are many English speakers going to be confused what callendar system is in use?

Also 3000AD might be fine? Maybe pad it out with some of the methods of how these predictions are made, and how they are able to be certain of certain parts / timelines. Jaybest (talk) 21:01, 7 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

2052

Why is the book 2052: A Global Forecast for the Next Forty Years listed as a "prediction" for 2052, especially without any specific predictions from the book? I've read the article and it only makes rather vague predictions about economics, energy and the environment. I decided to post here first before removing it.

I agree, its useless including it in this page. This page should show particular events that are scheduled to happen. Not a book on predictions Danial Bass (talk) 20:44, 30 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Under 22nd century redirections it is written that: " the attempted assassination of Pope John Paul II (which happened at 21:37)". It was not the assasination attempt that happened at that hour, but instead it was his death in 2005. 91.123.181.237 (talk) 19:39, 26 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

28th century

The video game franchise Halo is supposed to be set in the mid 26th century, not in the 28th century. DavGxyz (talk) 03:12, 23 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Over certainty in future human events?

This isn't a comprehensive list but all of the following form a pattern where the wording is basically a crystal ball:

  • The first book from the Future Library project will be published, 100 years after being submitted by author Margaret Atwood.
  • The One Hundred Year Study on Artificial Intelligence (AI100) initiated by Stanford University will be concluded.
  • The film 100 Years by Robert Rodriguez and John Malkovich will be released, 100 years after its development finished in 2015.
  • 2117: A song titled "100 Years", composed by Pharrell Williams, will be released to the public. The song was performed by Williams at a private party in Shanghai, China, in 2017. The song is said to have addressed global warming.

For all we know the Future Library's archive might be set on fire, Rémy Martin might file for bankrupcy and the company that buys their assets wish to release the film early, and, IIRC, Pharrell's song is in a vault that is intentionally built to be affected by rising sea levels. 2803:4600:1116:F44:B0D4:7F0F:4E6F:3A20 (talk) 19:33, 5 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
