When will Apple deliver a self-driving car?
They just stopped working on it recently. This doesn't mean Apple won't try again in a few years like most of their products. They will try again when the technology is more reliable and trusted. There have been to many reports of self-driving cars causing accidents etc. from other companies which would impact their product line.

When will a greater than human artificial intelligence be demonstrated publicly?
We now have NPUs and we can already make supercomputers. We are also seeing the rise of new AI services. This leads me to believe we will see a public demonstration by IBM or the like from an R&D lab sometime around 2030. Perhaps it will happen more like 2035 but I don't think we will have to wait until 2040.

Will Time Travel be possible before 2030?
I don't believe we have enough understanding to time travel with objects or biological subjects. Perhaps by 2030, we'll be able to readily proof time travel is possible but not be able to use it outside of a lab.

As Google's chairman Eric Schmidt predicts: Will everyone on Earth be online by 2020?
No. The poor won't be able to get online. Unless of course they make Internet access free for everyone and not just free in public places. They would also need to provide Internet capable devices so people can actually use the Internet.

Will Time Travel be possible before 2022?
Quite simply no. It would require massive amounts of power and the first thing that time travel would be used for is changing the outcome of disasters or preventing them outright. We currently have to deal with some kind of disaster every year so no, time travel isn't happening any time soon.

When will first humans live on Mars ?
This would require a colony. I put my thoughts down on that question.

When will SpaceX founder Elon Musk build a colony on Mars ?
We barely got to the moon. I would assume that we would have frequent travels to the moon before we get to Mars. I also believe we wouldn't be able to send a team to Mars and get them back within a reasonably amount of time. We would have to send a team with the intent on building a colony with all the materials and equipment to do so on the first go. If that is successful. We still won't be able to call it a colony until people can live their entire lives there and potentially have children. This would also most likely require several shipments of supplies and equipment but that can be done by automated machines. Regardless, it's going to happen later rather than sooner.

Will cold fusion energy become a reality before the end of 2020?
They might succeed in a lab environment but this doesn't mean it will work outside of a lab environment. I think that cold fusion has a similar amount of difficulty as artificially creating elements.

What will be the result of the new police investigation into the death of Vishal Mehrotra?
Investigations take a long time and this is also a cover up. So, I don't think we will be getting a conclusion any time soon.

Will Time Travel be possible before 2022?
I don't believe they would fund something like this being called a time machine. now if they presented it as a new way to study particals and physics then yes. I still don't see that happening until after 2022 though,

When will first humans live on Mars ?
They don't know how to get past the radiation belts now to safely survive outside of the ISS. All they can do is complete an expedition on Mars and return like they did with the Moon. We'll end up colonizing the Moon before anything because of this.

Will NASA announce discovery of extraterrestrial life before 31 Dec 2018 ?
They don't need to disclose anything more than they do. If there is something they know that we don't already suspect. It will be blocked by other means because NASA is a department of the government. This means politics are involved and the politicians will be the ones who block the disclosure.
