We will probably see Ready Player One in a few decades. Hoping to stay alive till then.
Decades?
I mean, yes, the probability of having that level of tech in decades is quite high.

It's absolutely possible it will take more time to become economical.
The mass-poverty and climate changed ravaged world parts, I could definitely see.
