It also depends on when will general purpose quantum computing will reach commercial level, which will significantly accelerate AI development (though even non-general purpose quantum computers will still create massive impacts on the sector).
I would also say that relative immortality will also be achieved by 2050 (that is, longevity technology will allow you to live 20 years longer for example, buying enough time for technology to advance and extend your life span, and extend it again, until we don't age anymore).
I hope we don't have artificial intelligence. Its a recipe for disaster.
