You'll still be able to use SQL. You will still use RDBMses for things they are good at. You will stop using SQL for things SQL is not good at. You will start collecting much more data. You'll be able to throw as much processing power at your problem as you want to, for short periods of time. You'll be able to effortlessly pull in disparate data-sets and work with them without the effort required to import new data and pre-define relationships and indexes in a SQL schema. You will be able to query unstructured data in multiple formats including video, images, audio, html, plaintext, etc. with more structured data. You will live in a culture of data, where large numbers of PCs are brought to bear on all of your data whenever and however you want. You will discover new relationships you did not know were there. You will get increased value from data you didn't know had value because you didn't bother collecting it, because your DBMS wasn't good at working with that kind of data. All these are new opportunities that exist in addition to traditional RDBMSes, not in place of them.
