Predictions. Everybody's Got Em. By Greg Walters I recently released my "Greg's Ai Predictions & Visions of the New World" on Grwalters dot com. Predictions are easy and fun. I've done it before and I'll do it again. In the past, it was an exercise in entertainment. My current(2024) list sways from the death of the C-Suite to suburbs as workplaces - live in the city, work in the suburbs without driving, of course. I will continue to add detail to each over the next few months or so; indeed, the list has grown by two, bringing the total up from a dozen. So, without much fanfare, I released the vision to the world, the Universe. All normal stuff. I went to the mother-of-all-blogs, TheDeathOfTheCopier and searched "the death of the internet". The result was jaw dropping, at least for me. The search pulled up a post dated September 21, 2014, "The Death of the Internet, Paper...and Single Payer Healthcare".
Innocuous, until I dug deeper into the past revealing the present AND FUTURE. One passage, "When texting from my iPhone, I'll be able to attach voice and video to the IM and regulate how long that message exists - it will self-destruct in three minutes or exist forever... all our information, passwords, credit card numbers, bank account information would be held on our personal devices behind security hardware and fingerprint scanners." And then this: "The Shape of Things to Come (respect to TR7), a list of the next hierarchies to transform - enjoy:
All from 2014. To be honest, I don't know how to react. Spooky. I mean, will the list still be the same in 2034?
