By the year 2099, might there be any concerns about computers going crazy similar to the fears surrounding Y2K?

(Some of you may not even know what Y2K was, or were not even around for it.)

    Considering how much of a big deal they made Y2K out to be, it turned into a nothing burger for the most part.  I doubt I will be around in 2099.

    The scammers and conspiracy theorists might try to make a big deal out of it.

    Probably if you saw PCs of 2099 the units might not be anything like what  is in vogue at  present.

    We’ll all be dead by then too.

     Perhaps you’ll be dead by then, but I won’t. I still have a lot of territory to cover, you know.

    Might more to the point to wonder if there will be anyone about in a fit state to worry about whatever passes for a computer at the time....

    At least most of we here need not be concerned. Some of the youngsters looking up "Y2K" to see what that meant, might be, though.
