DragonKing Dark: The future is wrong
On this edition of DragonKing Dark, host Karl Stern talks about why it is virtually impossible to predict the future.
Chaos takes the future in unforeseen directions. Trends we think will lead to future tech often fizzle out or go in previously unconsidered directions. We take a look at predictions made in the past by leading magazines and see how completely wrong they guessed the future to look like but try to understand why they believed the way they did. We also look at what we think the future may look like today and why we are probably wrong.
