Do you ever experience FOMO about the future? Most of us won’t live much beyond 100, so think of the things that will be available just beyond your expected lifespan. Do you sometimes think “darn! I’ll miss some cool stuff”?

@gpowerf All the time! I’m happy that I still have (hopefully) a half century to experience the future, but I’m also optimistic about what else the future holds and I get FOMO about that! Especially with space exploration. There’s so many unknowns that will be discovered that I just want to know about!

@maxmm77 I’m looking forward to the next few years of AI.

@gpowerf Absolutely, an I’m interested to see how our technology and society changes (hopefully for the better!) because of it.
I got a hit with a wave of the opposite of FOMO when ChatGPT went public and there was news of the nuclear fusion success. I finally thought “wow these are huge breakthroughs I’ll get to see in my life!”
Really hoping self driving cars is in my lifetime because I hate driving!🤞🤞

@gpowerf I have been thinking this about as long as I have realized that my life span is finite. It's a bit like the feeling you get packing your stuff on the last day of a rainy vacation and seeing that there will be glorious sunshine from tomorrow on.
