We will have created incredibly intelligent humans
It is more likely that direct brain links using electronics will achieve this, but GM will help a lot by increasing longevity- keeping people alive until electronic immortality technology is freely available at reasonable cost.
The idea that breakthroughs in the field of genetics, biotechnology and artificial intelligence will expand human intelligence and allow our species to essentially defeat death is sometimes called the Singularity.

We will be able to control the weather
There is already some weather control technology for mediating tornadoes, making it rain and so on, and thanks to climate change concerns, a huge amount of knowledge is being gleaned on how weather works. We will probably have technology to be able to control weather when we need to. It won’ t necessarily be cheap enough to use routinely and is more likely to be used to avoid severe damage in key areas.
A majority of scientists in the US support a federal programme to explore methods for engineering the Earth’ s climate( otherwise known as geoengineering).
