What will be the future fashion trends to come from the technology sector?

What would food look like if we could scale up lab grown meat?
A lot of food uses bones, off cuts, etc. For example, soup. Many cultures also commonly make use of things like chicken hearts, feet, pigs intestines etc. I once ate lamb brains at a Michelin stared Spanish restaurant. If lab grown meats become more prevalent (you could include plant-based meat here too), where would we get the bones and off-cuts for these things? I'm guessing that companies woul

I'd love to hear if anyone has speculations or ideas, and possibly even some evidence to back them up. Edit: spelling submitted by

What is something that is in the infancy of its existence or doesn't exist at all that will be a household item or practice in 10 years?
I'd say crypto, as I still believe it's in the beginning stages of adoption. Also, I'd love to see solar powered building materials be more main stream – like a building's roof, walls, windows etc are all solar panels. EDIT: This has been a great discussion. These seem to be the most common answers: Psychedelics – this is probably my favorite answer, the use of psychedelics to help treat trauma a

Are exothermic chemical reactions a possible avenue for energy? Or is this done regularly today already?
We talk a lot about solar and nuclear energy for the future, but every substance, not just nuclear reactive material is capable of undergoing some kind of chemical reaction that produces heat, which can be used to heat water and subsequently produce steam. I understand the vast majority of these just aren't viable or downright dangerous, but can we think of any major chemical reactions that are "
