What was once conceived as science fiction is now anchored in reality. Year Million, a new six-part documentary-drama series from National Geographic, explores what it will be like to be human one million years into the future. Today's brightest futurists, scientists, scholars and notable science fiction writers guide viewers through the very latest advances in technology, ideas and innovations that likely will power the evolution of our species. Through illustrative, dramatic storytelling, Year Million paints a version of humanity's fate through the lens of a typical futuristic American family, which includes a daughter who is android. The series propels us into an odyssey of unfathomable choices humans will face while questioning the kind of lives we'll live and the people we'll become a million years from now. Year Million imagines a future when mortality becomes a thing of the past; man merges with machine; intelligence is limitless; and the human species becomes interplanetary. The series predicts how every aspect of technology may affect our lives, for better or worse.

Looks fascinating, but to project today’s views of global society into the distant future, integrating humans and AI will do nothing to wipe out, say, racism.
Even then it’s iffy, at best.
I sure as shit want nothing to do with Trans-humanism. You can’t force it on people. Presumptuous and irresponsible without a plan. Is there a plan we don’t know about?

Agree 100%..however, the elites want their 4th industrial revolution…AI…and they’re getting it. Won’t say specifically….but the transhumanist movement…aka making people GMO hybrid…has begun already. ;) The only way to stay natural is to NEVER feed into any of their fearmongering ways, scripted narratives, etc etc etc. I would watch this…but I cannot bring myself to do so. I have read so much Ray Kurzweil I may get sick, lol. Cheers!

Very optimistic to imagine the human species surviving another ten centuries, given its history and current course. Humans will likely be extinct within the next thousand years.
