37、g to Cadell Last, a researcher at the Global Brain Institute, who claims mankind is undergoing a major “evolutionary transition”In less than four decades, Mr Last claims we will live longer, have children in old age and rely on artificial intelligence to do ordinary and boring tasks. This shift is s
38、o significant, he claims, it is comparable to the change from monkeys to apes, and apes to humans. “Your 80 or 100 is going to be so radically different than your grandparents,” Mr Last says, who believes we will spend much of our time living in virtual reality. Some evolutionary scientists believe
39、this age could be as high as 120 by 2050.Mr Last claims humans will also demonstrate delayed_maturation,_according to a report by Christina Sterbenz in Business Insider. This refers to something known as life history theory which attempts to explain how natural selection shapes key events in a creat

Today, the average age at which a woman in Britain has h

By 2012, that figure rose to 15 percent.“As countries become socioeconomically advanced, more and more people, especially women have the option to engage in cu
44、ltural reproduction,” Mr Last added. And as well as having more childfree years to enjoy leisure time, he believes artificial intelligence will make up the need for lowskill jobs. We may also spend a large amount of time living in virtual reality. “Im not quite sure most people have really absorbed the implications of this possibility,” Mr Last said.
