Some of his well-known, correct predictions include the demise of the Soviet Union and the explosion of the internet around the world once wireless internet had been introduced.
His prediction for 2029 involves direct brain implants. These implants will be widespread by 2029, meaning that they will be relatively affordable. The implants will have the capability to take your mind wherever you want to go. It would be the most advanced type of virtual reality mankind has ever known.
Without the use of eyeglasses or headphones, you will be able to think of a place, a situation, even a sound and signals will be sent to your brain, making you feel like you are really there. On top of this, he claims that there will also be implants for your eyes and/or ears, which could possibly be removable. These implants will be able to record everything you see and or hear.
So, will Kurzweil’s prediction be correct again? We will just have to wait until 2029 to see.
