    AI is set to rule the world and trump gets a second term

    As much as I love reading about the future and time travel I doubt the authenticy

    Fist 3 points are kinda obvious



    Anyone like to weigh in
    Among his predictions is the claim that Google Glass-style robotics will spread across the globe.

    Technology will also have developed to the point where it will be able to independently run a home.

    Bitcoin will be increasingly popular but pennies and cents will still be in use.

    In 2030 he says the US president is a mysterious figure called Ilana Remikee.

    He also suggests global warming has caused temperatures in North America to increase while Europe has cooled.

    Lie detector tests are hardly fool proof.

    I agree . Plus the whole thing sounds propstorius

    My question is
    If a real time traveler ever came back
    would anyone believe him

    Google couldn't even make Google Glass catch on.

    If they gave proper predictions near term. That or if they were half cyborg and shot laser out of their eyes... then maybe.

    It's hard to say what kind of proof would be acceptable. If the butterfly effect is strong enough, then his presence in our time might be enough to send ripples out that would change the future and make his predictions useless. Maybe if he had a few examples of amazing technology that was decades ahead of its time, that would be strong evidence. Or, if he brought the time-travel technology with him and made it available to the public, that would be proof.

    Bet if you ask him to predict anything that will happen in the next week or two, he'll go very quiet....

    Liverpool & Man City will progress to the quarter finals the Champions League.

    Sounds legit.

    The Express has at least a few of these sort of stories every day. It's pure click bait along with their "eating this will prevent ...........", "immigrants destroying NHS", "world will end on Tuesday" rubbish. It's essentially a daily version of "Weekly World News" with added racism.


  • Registered Users Posts: 27,037 ✭✭✭✭GreeBo


    Surely if he is a time traveler then they are not "predictions"...

    As was said if he came back he could alter the past so hes future could be slightly different to our future so hes predictions may never be accurate even if they were true

    And why don't others come back and stop him revealing all.....

    Its not just them though

    Plenty of other sources are reporting it , Express was just the 1st link I saw

    Surely finding our times Noah, and comparing his DNA to time traveller Noah would be much more a reliable indicator of the veracity of his time travel claim than the psuedo science of polygraphs?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,586 ✭✭✭4068ac1elhodqr


    He claims the Donald will get re-elected in 2020, hard to doubt now.

    Can't seem to get any odds for lana Remikee POTUS 2030, as he predicted.
    Perhaps because there isn't likely even to be an election that year.

    That's handy.

    That would assume they know
    perhaps hes a rougue scientist gone back in time to warn us about the future

    The end is nigh my friends
    Kiss your loved ones goodbye and await the inevitable :D

    Sounds like he's against using the time machine for financial gain.


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,703 ✭✭✭✭padd b1975


    Did he happen to mention anything about Cheltenham?


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,119 ✭✭✭Gravelly

    Tell that to all the lads gone off to buy cheap bitcoin now that he's said it's a good investment.....


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,512 ✭✭✭JeffKenna


    In fairness I can see his point. If he tells us too much information about the near future it will disrupt the time continuum. Even the fact we are discussing this now means he's probably caused a ripple and hopefully adjusted the future.

    Still though
    Could be a self fulfilling prophesy

    Trump reads or see this on youtube
    says right I can see now from this time traveler I will a second term
    So I will run again in the next election

    Causing the mysterious Ilana Remikee to rise up in anger and vow to wrest the presidency from him....

    Or you know, it's a convenient excuse to avoid making predictions that would be quickly be proven wrong.

    However he could easily point to natural disasters that would not be affect by what's being talked about.
    Or he could point to new astronomical events or discoveries that would be easy to check and verify.
    Or he could point to some information that couldn't be known now, but could be easily verified, like for an example, the location of a sunken ship which is currently unknown, but is discovered in the future.
    There's tons of ways that he could prove he's a time traveller.

    He's not even a particularly good hoax.

    Think he said she was the granddaughter of MLKing, and would become 'the pres' mid-term of Donald v2's in 2030, at the age of 21. The last thing she probably needs now is a few million unverified twitter follower requests whilst learning about elementary maths, rhymes or dinosaurs names.

    "Ilana Ramikee" is an anagram of "I am a keen liar". Just saying.


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,301 ✭✭✭✭gerrybbadd


    Anyhow, sure isn't Donald trump meant to be a time traveller as well?
