Turing award winner John Hopcroft[1] has a similar message about the future of computer science research[1]. He talks about how a lot of early CS research was to make Computer Science useful by focusing on languages and algorithms but how the focus is and will be changing. Pretty cool topics like sparse vectors, zero-knowledge proofs and social networks with applications in biology and digital medical records.
