Could 2024 be the year we start wearing computers on our faces en masse? Might scientists cure sickle cell patients and move to geothermal energy? The answer is yes, according to the MIT Technology Review. Each year, the journal publishes a list of its top 10 predictions of technologies that could make a lasting impact in the year to come. This year’s list focuses on advancements in health, green energy and computing. We’ll talk with editors and reporters from the magazine about what technological advances they expect to change our lives, and what technological promises probably won’t pan out.

Guests:

Will Douglas Heaven, senior editor for AI, MIT Technology Review

Antonio Regalado, senior editor for biomedicine, MIT Technology Review

Amy Nordrum, executive editor, MIT Technology Review

Casey Crownhart, climate reporter, MIT Technology Review
