>drop of IQ, not enough money in the good fields and a lot of them in meme fields, Competence Crisis, nepotism, shitty papers and "studies" nobody cares about, the ones who invent something wake up death next day etc
world’s scientific research and development spending is around 2400 billions per year, where the fuck are the money going ? i can't see it in real life, where is my nano tech who can fix a cut in seconds? where's my true augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR)? fusion is two decades away, i don't see any real implants like in Cyberpunk genre, where are my flying cars who can also drive on a road? where are the Moon/Mars colonies and space stations ? AGI?
When i was young 25 years ago i had grand dreams of what the future of humanity would look like in 25-30 years, now all of them are fucking dead
