Preposition: You wrote, "While people are dreaming  the lifestyle with..." You need to preposition "of" here to  indicate that a person is dreaming *of* something. "While people are  dreaming of the lifestyle with..." Word choice: You wrote, "don't  have always..." Instead of "don't have", you should say  "have not" or "haven't always."

Life is not predictable. When reflecting on past sci-fi  stories and articles about the future, we find that only a few of their  prophecies have come true. However, knowing about it, people are still bound  to wonder about the future, because the life, future and destiny of mankind  are our daily topics that we never tire of. Life in the next 25 years is most  likely going to follow the trends of the current progresses of technologies.  Among many other changes, I would say that our future life shall get rid of  paper money. Within the past few decades, we have experienced the payment  with cash, checks, credit cards, then electronic payment such as ApplePay,  Alipay,Wechatwallets, etc. Currently, my smart phone relieves me from carrying my wallet.  With the methods of electronic payment set up in my smart phone, I could buyeverythingeverywhere  in China, even give money to a beggar who often offers a QR code in front of  him. Within a few years, metal keys will become obsoletetoelectronic locks,  because all keys will have become digital and stored in a smart phone. Mobile  technology is already in the running to replace the handy phone with wearable  devices, and I think more and more people will get on board with it.  Artificial intelligence is taking off! Getting with the program in terms of  AI technology, we will live in smart houses or apartments. While people are  dreaming of the lifestyle with versatile robotic servants at home, I imagine,  instead of living with a robot, I will live in a giant robot, which is my  home, be it an apartment or a house. Like a fetus lives in its mom’s womb, I  can comfortably have everything ready for me there. Further, like the fetus  keeps growing, I can upgrade myself inside a smart apartment, refreshing and  recreating, etc. Old home designs don’t stand a chance with AI pervading in thehousingmarket.  Keeping in the loop about the advancement, I'm really looking forward to a  tech-savvy life! Don’t be left in the lurch on the technology front. Even  though we haven’t always been ahead of our time, we don’t want to end up  behind the times.
