1000 years is too little for big evolutionary changes in a species that reproduces as slowly as us. So unless they went full cyborg or generic engineering the changes won't be very big.

I mean not even from evolution, but like style and what not. 500 years ago things like tattoos as a fashion thing would be unheard of outside like tribal stuff (I think at least I'm no expert). would be interesting to see what they come up with

video tattoos, split tongues, robotic sidekicks

1000 years is long enough for us to get a lot more comfortable with things like eugenics, cloning, or other genetic fuckery.

I recall reading our evolutionary trend is headed towards making toes obsolete, so they might be down to only three or four by then.
