It is 24th April 2050, three in the morning in London. I have selected a suspense theme dream for tonight. A biometric chip implanted in my wrist monitors my circadian sleep rhythm. The advancement in our understanding of human brains and the machine-human interface made it possible to control most human emotions and dreams. As the dream story end, a musical alarm wakes me up precisely at the end of the rapid eye sleep cycle to awake fresh and energetic.
The biometric chip informs an AI assistant that I am awake now. The AI assistant abreast me with the weather, full-day appointment snapshot, and crucial health stats. Then, as I perform my daily routine, the sensors implanted in the washroom quickly analyse saliva and other bodily discharge. It looks for any aberration in my current health readings and, with the help of AI, extrapolates the data points to predict any proactive warnings. Thankfully, I didn’t get any notification after the checks, and everything looks good.

While getting ready for the office, I wear the contact lens with augmented and virtual reality capability. My wife is away in a different city for a business meeting. Still, we always eat breakfast together…
