How does someone predict a particular narrative for next 30 years?
If anything I predict people will be disillusioned trying to pump AI/ML in everything imaginable. And data collection just for the sake of collection will be looked down upon as spam. Soon we might need adblock like plugins to stop companies from trying to gain data on us.

- leresidue 9y ago>> How does someone predict a particular narrative for next 30 years? You won't anymore. Predicting a particular narritive is akin to decide what will happen. The more you force the future, the more the future tries to become the past. If the future is the past, then there is no progress made. No progress made, and you have a loop.
