    Yeah, science fiction has a very small set of fictional science goals.

    • travel
    • communication
    • create (artificial) life
    • no need to work

    That’s basically the whole wish-list of technology/magic science fiction. Or fiction in general.

    And from a technology standpoint we are incredibly far along on most of these points. (Except the last one, but that’s a systemic issue, not a technology one.)
