What Will the World Look Like in 2045? Our Bold Predictions

In this futuristic (but very much grounded) episode of Not Yo Avg Auntie’s Podcast, we’re putting on our vision goggles and asking the big question: What will the world look like in 2045?

From flying cars and AI-powered everything to deeper conversations about race, wealth, and equality, we’re making bold, unfiltered predictions about the next 20 years. Will there be more Black billionaires? Will the wealth gap finally shrink or stretch wider? Will education evolve or stay stuck?

Jo, Ki, and Jay dive into everything from digital IDs and smart cities to media manipulation, generational shifts, and the role of community in shaping what’s next.

We don’t have crystal balls, but we do have strong opinions, receipts, and a little bit of shade.

 

🎧 In this episode, we unpack:

🚀 What tech might actually change our lives

💰 Black wealth, billionaires & systemic barriers

📺 Media control and the messages we’re fed

📚 Education, identity & raising the next generation

⚠️ And what might go very wrong if we’re not paying attention

Because 2045 ain’t that far and the future is being shaped right now.
