A light-hearted summation of things
that surprise me and a guess at a couple long-term trends. Food for thought!
Surprise
- How we gave away private data to anybody who asked or promised us a little treat.
- Continuing to use astronauts (and fighter pilots).
- Bulky smart phones have not yet been replaced by smart apparel.
Long term trends
- Nomadic workforce. Groups of digital nomads who take their tiny houses and move with the weather, perhaps as entire communities.
- Biological revolution will follow the IT revolution. Customized organic substances will heal, protect, communicate, and build for us. Genome editing is just the start.
