While the 16th century French astrologer and apothecary Nostradamus is popular even today for his predictions, a Brazilian parapsychologist who is often called the ‘Living Nostradamus’ has now predicted some unusual things for 2025. The Brazilian “prophet” Athos Salomé, who is also called the ‘Living Nostradamus’, had earlier claimed to predict COVID-19 and the Russia-Ukraine war– which have made him quite famous lately.
Predicting what’s in store in 2025, the ‘Living Nostradamus’ told Daily Star in an interview that scientists, governments and corporations are relentlessly working on new humans that will be smarter, and more resistant to diseases. Mr Salomé also predicted that such genetically modified “new humans” will first be reported from Asian countries.
Talking about the future of work, Salomé further shared that Artificial Intelligence (AI) will become “out of control” in 2025. So much so that AI would be able to make “irreversible decisions” in many fields of work including cyber security among others. It is noted that AI has now become an integral part of our world today, and if it gets “out of control” the world would surely change a lot more– and this would be unprecedented.
Not just AI, Salomé further predicted that extraterrestrial life‘s existence will also be finally revealed, including a proof of Mars having microbial life. The ‘Living Nostradamus’ shared that while countries like the US, China, and Russia will try to hide this crucial information from the general public, private companies including billionaire Elon Musk’s SpaceX could reveal it to the world.
Salomé’s predictions also include an upcoming energy crisis in the world, and many governments getting into mass surveillance by implanting chips in people in the guide of giving health and security facilities. He has also predicted shocking climate disasters and many more secret military operations that can happen in 2025.
How AI can shape our work life
Over the years, AI has significantly changed and transformed our work lives. On one hand it has improved workers’ efficiency, productivity, and brought in innovation, on the other is has also lead to job losses in several feilds of work.
Some benefits of AI at work are:
1. It has helped in automation of repetitive tasks, thus freeing employees from mundane tasks so that they can focus on more creative or strategic work.
2. AI-powered analytics helps in giving data-driven insights. This helps employees and companies to make better decision-making.
3. Some AI tools also help in streamlining workflows thus increasing people’s efficiency.
Some challenges of AI:
1. One needs to ensure that AI systems are fair and unbiased.
2. Managing data responsibly and ethically while using AI is also something to ponder over.
3. With AI causing job losses, one needs to prepare for shifts in job roles through reskilling and education.
