"WELCOME TO MCDONALD'S. TODAY IS 21 APRIL 2058, 16:13 GMT. CAN I HELP YOU?"
“欢迎来到麦当劳,现在是2058年4月21日,下午16:13分,请点餐”。
"Hi, could I have a Quad Core A11 Beef Burger Combo please," said Jamie.
“嗨,给我来一份四核 A11 牛肉汉堡套餐”,杰米说道。
"SURE. ONE QCA11 COMBO, COMING 10 IN SECONDS." Replied the robot worker.
“好的,一份QCA11,10秒后上架。”智能机器人员工回复。
The future awaits us with exciting foods and maybe even new types of foods.
未来会带给我们无限惊喜,甚至可能是新型美食。
As well as basic technology in our everyday lives, like phones and computers, we encounter the odd chip in our pets, 3D printing for replacing bones or we'll have the ability to implement electronic devices into our food.
就像高科技嵌入手机,电脑等日常生活品,我们未来还可能将宠物身体植入特殊芯片,用3D打印技术完成骨骼替换手术,甚至把食品餐饮也电子化。
In 40 years, it will be 2058. By that time we will have advanced to have all things aided by robots or other types of artificial intelligence.
40年后,就是2058年了。预想那个时代,机器人或其他类型的人工智能衍生物将参与协助几乎人类所有的事务。
Going along with the idea of artificial intelligence. We could design some type of machine that could help us genetically modify our foods without it being so extensive and expensive. Instead of multiple jugs of vitamins, we would be able to pack all the nutrients into one tablet!
随着人工智能的普及。我们可以借由新型研发机器,无需花费大量生产力和资金,就可以帮助我们高效研发新型定制食品。瓶瓶罐罐的各种保健品,浓缩成简单一小粒就可以了。
In the future, the demand for grown foods will decrease. Companies will start producing industrialized food. It gives us an opportunity to taste the foods that we couldn't eat before, due to our restricting food allergies.
在不久的将来,种植食品的需求将会下降, 很多公司开始生产工业化食品。这将给我们机会品尝从前由于过敏等原因无法品尝的食物。
One of the many more ways that robots and machines can help us by using genetic modification, is giving people with food requirements a chance to taste the delicious delicacies of the world. What happens if in the future there are no food allergies? That is a question to think about.
机器人和机械化带给我们很多帮助,其中之一便是改良食物基因,帮助人们满足尝遍世界美食的需求。如果这世界不存在食物过敏将会怎样呢?这值得畅想一番。
Relating to food, we should also consider how we might acquire our food in the future.
说到食物,我们不由得联想起未来的我们该如何获得食物。
Will we still need to put on clothes and drive out to the eateries? Or will we get our food delivered? Maybe, a robot cooks it for us. Will we need world-class chefs? Restaurants? Will we ever need to learn to cook?
我们是否还需要着装整齐,开车去餐馆?或者我们会叫外卖送餐?或者,机器人家政会为我们做饭。我们还需要世界级大厨吗?还需要饭店吗?我们还需要学习做饭吗?
I personally enjoy cooking and once I dreamed to own a restaurant. If in the near future we won't need chefs, then I wonder what the system will be like?
我自己也挺喜欢做饭的,我曾经梦想拥有一家自己的餐厅。如果在不久的将来我们不需要厨师,饮食行业会是什么样子呢?
Going back to today, in 2018, many new and revolutionary inventions have changed the world and the future brings us convenience and new possibilities with our food.
回到今天,2018年,许多新的革命性的发明改变了世界,未来必将给我们的生活带来轻松便利,当然还有更多美食给我们带来的惊喜~
