I plan on getting some schadenfreude out of however AI develops. Complete general artificial intelligence that works will seriously devalue intelligence as a job skill, which is a very funny result for all the smart people working so hard to make it happen. Or, alternatively if we discover thinking machines are like space travel and the initial successes our species had in it turn out to be waaaay farther from the big stuff than we thought then that's funny too. Even the middleground where we get amaze-o robots and they're a miracle and everybody is bored with them inside of 5 years is pretty hilarious. And of course the destruction of our species by our own toys has been lined up as a hell of a joke since the atomic age began. Really, no matter what happens, there will be German hate-happy aplenty.

Backup reserves of schadenfreude: if fax machines continue to be required for legal reasons for another 50 years. Watching young people have to deal with a fax is already hilarious and it'll only get funnier.
