Tyra Banks thinks everyone will have robot assistants in the future

In a piece about her beauty predictions for the future, she said: "Everyone will have at least one personal robot/assistant/companion. If a person allows that robot/assistant to suggest products paid for by sponsors, that person's robot will be free of charge. In fact, that person will actually be paid to use the robot by a pool of advertisers. The robot will have super artificial intelligence and will be able to sense if its owner is having a low-self-esteem day and will then strategically give boosts of confidence to its owner. 'Wow, Eloisa! Your eyes look especially lovely today.' "

And the 40-year-old model is convinced couples will be able to select their children's features as easily as they order food from a takeaway.

She added in the article for the Wall Street Journal: "The features of one's baby will be as selectable as menu items at a fast-food drive-through window. Blue and green eyes will become so common that dark brown will become the rare and newly desired eye colour."

While Tyra believes cosmetic surgery will be readily available to all in the future, she thinks some people still won't want to go under the knife but there will be other options available to them.

She said: "For those who choose not to go for plastic surgery, beauty ingestibles (active waters, etc.) will give instant, yet temporary results: contoured cheekbones, rosy cheeks, arched eyebrows. However, one must use them repeatedly to maintain results."
