Latex has too much inertia for users to switch anytime soon. The only competition is from commercial tools like Adobe Framemaker.
I hope the future will turn out to be Lyx + Asciidoctor export. If Microsoft Word ever improves their math input interface, I think it would just kill off LaTex completely. It's already almost mandatory to use for document interchange.
Markdown is too limited. It has no standard for extensions - Asciidoc does. Markdown IMO is strictly for writing blog posts that are mostly text.
