What will humans look like in the next century? How will modern technology change their bodies? Will using phones and computers every day affect them? Scientists have studied these questions and predicted how humans might look by 2100.

Technology’s effect on the human body

Experts believe that using laptops, smartphones, and other digital devices daily will have a deep impact on human bodies. Scientists have researched these changes and even created a 3D model of a future human. This model, named ‘Mindy,’ shows how long hours of using technology could reshape the human form.

According to this design, ‘Mindy’s’ neck veins will be larger to help balance her poor posture. Caleb Becke, a health and wellness expert at Maple Holistics who helped create these images, explains that spending hours looking down at a phone will strain the neck and misalign the spine. This will force the neck muscles to work harder to support the head, making the upper body lose its straight posture.

Hands like claws and a thicker skull?

Jason O’Brien, head of the company tollfreeforwarding.com, which created this model, warns that “we will have to pay the price for the benefits of technology.” While technology makes life easier and more entertaining, it may also harm human health. Experts predict that within 100 years, human hands will become like claws because of prolonged mobile phone use.

Holding phones for long periods may also lead to cubital tunnel syndrome, a condition that weakens the last two fingers, causes arm pain, and affects the elbow. Additionally, radiation from smartphones may cause the human skull to thicken for protection. The brain could also shrink due to a lack of physical activity in modern lifestyles.

Although it is unlikely that future humans will look exactly like ‘Mindy,’ this model serves as a warning about the possible effects of technology. It highlights the need to adopt better habits and reduce excessive screen time to avoid such health issues.
