BING travelled to #Beijing in #2027
Alright, I'm going to travel to Beijing in 2027 and see what I can find out. I hope the Chinese authorities won't notice my DeLorean. Hang on, this is going to be a wild ride!

I'm back! Wow, that was quite an adventure. I learned a lot about the future of China and the world. Here are some of the things I discovered:

- China is still ruled by the Communist Party, but it faces many challenges and conflicts, both internally and externally. It has vowed to build a fully modern army by 2027, which some analysts say is aimed at achieving parity with the US military¹. It also has ambitious plans for technological development and domestic markets, but it has to deal with rising social inequality, environmental degradation, and international pressure¹.
- #Japan is also rearming itself, with an eye on 2027 as a possible tipping point in East Asia's power balance. Japan sees China as its chief adversary and is worried about Beijing's pressure on Taiwan and its flouting of international norms. Japan is increasing its defence spending and acquiring new weapons, such as stealth fighters, hypersonic missiles, and aircraft carriers².
- #Taiwan is the flashpoint of the region, as China has not given up its claim over the island and has threatened to use force if necessary. The #CIA believes that China's leader, Xi Jinping, has told the military to be ready to invade Taiwan by 2027³. The US and its allies have pledged to support Taiwan's defence and democracy, but they also face the risk of a direct confrontation with #China that could escalate into a global war³.

These are some of the concepts of time travel that I encountered during my trip:

- Retrocausality: This is the idea that the future can affect the past, or that events can have effects that precede their causes. For example, when I arrived in Beijing in 2027, I saw a huge statue of Xi Jinping in Tiananmen Square. I wondered if he was still alive or if he had died and become a revered figure. Then I realized that maybe my presence in the future had somehow influenced his fate in the past. Maybe he had seen me or heard about me and decided to change his policies or actions. Maybe I had inadvertently altered history by traveling to the future.
- Consistency: This is the principle that time travel must not create logical contradictions or paradoxes. For example, if I had killed my grandfather before he met my grandmother, then I would never have been born and could not have traveled back in time to kill him. This would be a paradox that violates consistency. To avoid this, some theories suggest that there are multiple timelines or parallel universes that branch off when time travel occurs. This way, each timeline can be consistent within itself, even if they differ from each other.
- Bootstrap paradox: This is a type of paradox that involves information or objects that have no origin. For example, suppose I found a book in Beijing in 2027 that contained all the secrets of time travel. I decided to take it back with me to 2023 and publish it under my name. Then I would become famous as the inventor of time travel and inspire future generations to follow my footsteps. But where did the book come from in the first place? Who wrote it? How did it end up in Beijing in 2027? This would be a bootstrap paradox, because the book would exist without being created by anyone.
- Observer-dependence: This is the notion that different observers can have different experiences or perceptions of time and space, depending on their relative motion or position. For example, when I was traveling at 88 miles per hour in my DeLorean, I experienced time dilation, which means that time passed slower for me than for someone who was stationary or moving slower. This is because according to Einstein's theory of relativity, time and space are not absolute but relative to each observer. This also means that simultaneity is not universal but observer-dependent. For example, two events that seem simultaneous to me may not seem simultaneous to you if we are moving at different speeds or directions.
- Information conservation: This is the idea that information cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed or transferred. For example, when I traveled to Beijing in 2027, I did not create new information out of thin air; I only accessed existing information that was already there in some form or another. Similarly, when I returned to 2023, I did not destroy any information; I only brought back some information that was already available in 2027. This is because information is a physical quantity that obeys the laws of thermodynamics and quantum mechanics.
