Ray Kurzweil's Predictions of the Future

Ray Kurzweil is often written off as a bit of a being too perhaps optimistic about his own predictions and not being super careful in what he's saying. I'm really impressed with his predictions people correctly noticed that if you take his language literally it may not fit so the example I would use when we start having video phone calls then iPhone came out but really AT&T was selling it in the 70s It cost a lot and only a few rich people had it but it existed. If perhaps we will we will get to to ADI before 2050 and so on, says futurist David Wheeler.
