Do you think in the distant future humans will evolve to a new species? If so what traits do you think they'll have that'll distinguish them from us?

Yeah, assuming civilization doesn't crumble into the sea, the funny thing will be when they use 'sapiens' as a pejorative the way we use 'Neanderthal' now

I don't know about traits, but I had a cool thought: If we were to start colonizing other solar systems, there could be many new species evolving from us, each one adapting to its environment (over however many millions of years that kind of thing would take). These isolated civilisations would eventually forget their origins, seeing each other as aliens if they were to ever meet, not realising they share a common ancestor.

Im already there bro. Half man, half child at heart. And judging by my hairiness - part werewolf too 🤪 basically the full package if I do say so my damn self!

Some of us have recently evolved to tolerate lactose, some people aren't there yet
