We are well on the way of having instant porn downloads.
Modern man calls walking more quickly in the same direction down the same road “change.”
The world, in the last three hundred years, has not changed except in that sense.

The problem of abortion is a good example.
Once you have artificial wombs, there is no need for abortion, the cell cluster/fetus/baby is merely transplanted to an artificial uterus when its time for its "birth" its given up for adoption. The state would even have an economic incentive to support such "discarded babies" since most western nations have sub replacement fertility which will cause big problems.
What about babies with severe genetic defects? Should they be aborted? No reason to, just flood their system with GE retroviruses and they become productive members of society.
Every problem can be solved with technology.
Could do that, or just have the "flush" button

or a transhumanist who believes the same will happen, but in a longer time period like 100 years or 1000 years at most pessimistic view

was a singulitarian but have studied the matter more closely and think that the predictions are overhyped by a large margin.
