Buildings will be run by an artificial-intelligence personality — hello, building-version Siri!

Buildings' windows will be replaced by virtual-reality screens.

In "Back to the Future Part II," Marty McFly's future home was equipped with a virtual-reality window that could be changed to any scene (pictured above). The report envisions a similar future where buildings don't have windows, but VR screens.
