I agree. For examle, the predictions on AI and robotics
were a good 20 years sooner than predictions I've seen
from experts ike Hans Moravec, who are usually considered
pretty optimistic about AI's progress. There are definitely
some dark developments on that list that people will have
to watch out for, but then we pretty much knew that anyway.
