What will we look like in 100 years? 1,000 years? 10,000 years?! Will we even recognize ourselves? What is going to happen to us in the future? Will our cumulative culture continue to adapt and change? Will our #genetics? What will happen 1,000 years after we've sequenced the human genome? 10,000 years after the invention of the quantum computer? Will we be a #newspecies? ⏠⏠⏠⏠⏠⏠⏠ 📚CHAPTERS ⏡⏡⏡⏡⏡⏡⏡ 0:00 Friend like me 0:52 Breaking in 3:23 100 Years: One Jump ahead 10:17 1,000 Years: Cave of Wonders 20:01 10,000 Years: A Whole New World ⏠⏠⏠⏠⏠⏠⏠⏠⏠⏠⏠⏠ ⏰ SERIES DESCRIPTION ⏡⏡⏡⏡⏡⏡⏡⏡⏡⏡⏡⏡ As a crustacean poet once said, “The Human World, is a mess,” and boy was he correct. Our history is a patchwork of fossilized bones spread across the world. In the last 20 years, we’ve made huge leaps in our understanding of the human story, but we’re still trying to understand exactly where we came from and why we’re still here! This is especially confusing when you learn there were so many other ancient human-like creatures on this planet throughout our long history. If you take one thing away from this series, I want you to know you're a combination of millions of ancient animals toiling, adapting, evolving and breeding. Just ponder that for a while. ⏠⏠⏠⏠⏠⏠⏠⏠⏠⏠⏠⏠⏠⏠⏠⏠⏠⏠ 🤯SERIES LINKS: #HumanOrigins ⏡⏡⏡⏡⏡⏡⏡⏡⏡⏡⏡⏡⏡⏡⏡⏡⏡⏡ PART 1 - What’s a human? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OSIKuxdhogk PART 2 - Ancient primate to Homo sapiens https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fx9AqIWsKgI PART 3 - Why us?

During a time of dramatic climate change 300,000 years ago, Homo sapiens evolved in Africa. Like other early humans that were living at this time, they gathered and hunted food, and evolved behaviors that helped them respond to the challenges of survival in unstable environments.
