Note: The dates next to the names are NOT the dates of the person’s life, but the dates of the predictions they made. Seeing a lot of confused comments on that so just clearing that up.
My Prediction: We are ALL going to die one day from something. We are ALL going to forget everything we ever knew and experienced. We are ALL going to be forgotten one day in future eternity as if we never ever existed at all in the first place.
Historically Nikola Tesla didn't get the credit for his outstanding contributions he deserved. Atleast now people are beginning to realise his true value.
I mean... the science and engineering community understood the value of his contributions. And he was my favorite inventor when I was 5 back in 1998 because of how wacky his inventions and legacy was... I think its high-time we let go of the notion that he's under-appreciated at all today or that he's just now blossoming into societies collective consciousness. Anyone within shit-tossing range of Pop-Science knows who he is to some degree. He got screwed over by a marketer and innovator. So were many people who've paved the way to today and remain nameless in history. The best way to honor his legacy is doing something yourself and taking advantage of the tools given to you to do so.
Tesla was brilliant in that he invented alternating current. After that, he experimented with lightning generators and his sanity went downhill...no wonder he wasn't recognised at the time.
Kris Oluich Yep. I believe a lot of the technology from Apple and Elon Musk’s Tesla are just implementing his vision. And they are getting credit for it without acknowledging.
Telsa""s inventions were stolen. Half of his books have vanished. ( stolen I believe, as all the inventions Black people had in the time of slavery 300/400 years ago. And btw,, No one can invent a Century.
hatedNYC :::: SIMILAR to today saying the U.S. becomes one with Canada. That's crazy talk in 2021... in 2084, there are 63 states. Yeah, everyone knows that lol
I SAID ONE OF THESE AT WORK -- When people say how did people survive before phones, In 47, I said life was not better, but different. however, Imagine if our kids said - cell batteries that don't last 2 weeks ?? how did they go only lasting a day with a cell phone battery
@Peter Grahame "Let the future tell the truth and evaluate each one according to his work and accomplishments. The present is theirs; the future, for which I really worked, is mine." As quoted in Tesla: Man Out of Time, by Margaret Cheney, 2001
@Peter Grahame I believe Tesla is solidified in History. Yes, Tesla Man out of Time is a brilliant resource for Nikola Tesla! IMO its the best book written on Tesla, great resource!
@@soonersciencenerd383 yes, Edison was a narcissist, and he could not “ accept “ that compared to Tesla , he was a failure or second best - so spite, lies, and revenge were Edison’s way of downgrading and causing Tesla’s downfall. Our Government, confiscated all of Tesla’s records when he died, claiming that he was an “ alien”. According to Foxworth the government was “ vitally interested” in preserving Tesla’s papers. Two days after Tesla’s death, representatives of the Office of Alien Property went to his room at the New Yorker Hotel and seized all his possessions. That was also a lie, Tesla became a naturalized American Citizen on 30, July 1891.
Culture clash …Tesla was from a rural but very civilized home and had a rude awakening when coming to the wild west of NYC …Edison tried to get away with his version of ‘a fool and his money are easily parted’ …so he made a fool of Tesla taking advantage of his good nature …back when a man’s word and a handshake was supposed to be honored and honorable Edison tried to say “You don’t have a sense of humor”
Something good will happen in 2069 There will be a unique thing in the skies Imagine tho imagine in 2069 something bright appears somewhere in the world
The cost of living is making people go into different businesses anyways, but my problem is that the rate at which money gets finished on little purchases is so surprising
I make good income too from bitcoin trading and its been my most reliable source of income at the moment. With profits I've made so far I don't think i can get broke or lack anything.
@@finding.nirvana Edison stole the vast majority of ALL his "inventions". He stole from MUCH less intelligent people than N. TESLA.

Without Edison pushing Tesla's inventions into products for common folks, nobody would know who Tesla was. Both were like lightbulb and electricity. One is useless without the other.
Tesla is my most favorite person in history! He was by far the most advanced thinker of his time and alot of the innovations he developed were stolen by others! This man died penniless, but the people he worked for benefited big time from his knowledge! The whole world has benefited from him, but he doesn't get the acknowledgments he so deserves!
He was a pretty bad business man. Inventing is only half of innovation. Getting it too the people is what he was bad at, and instead of partnering with him he was taken advantage of because of his poor social and business skills.
@@jacobtaylor161 well he was not a business man, but his creativity is so high...if i live in 1920s ill welcome him and support him in my country...we can cover for him and defend him unlike an entitled or spoiled brats american.
@@andredeketeleastutecomplex it doesn't matter, current electric cars are a new canvas to start developing technologies in order to make them clean and more efficient
I am glad Nikola Tesla is being recognized as the genius he was. But he is still underrated today, considering that almost all layman don't know about him.

Most of these visionaries predicted the lifestyle and technology, while Tesla was actually working on something that could thrust us into this future - the free electricity for all, the alternative sources of energy. If he had succeeded in that - we would have been in the Golden Age already.
@kian mbakhtiari Actually anything with a faraday cage around it would be completely fine... This means most electronics as most electronics are surrounded by metal... Especially anything and everything in the iOS family... And besides that, the Tesla Tower would produce high voltages, but low currents. If florence light bulbs could hold up to the current being produced so could any of our electronics today.. And besides the besides that, your phones, iPads, and all other electronics would have been designed around the idea of how a Tesla Tower would work. So your iPhone and everything else would have been built differently to be support by the Towers.
Oh he definitely built it. He didn’t die a lonely old man living in a hotel, that is what government tells you. Our World doesn’t allow free thinkers like that. Free electric? Not in your life.
He’s not wrong re classrooms. It’s the way we will all live going forward. I just hope there are terrible penalties for computer hackers as they could become the new elite.
@@everanon4914 yes, I agree with you. The future will all be computer-aided learnings, less of the physical school and interactions with fellow students. So sad but this is how we are living today and as so said moving forward. This can also affect the economy, too. Less income for mall owners and coffee shops while the companies of mobile phones, computer softwares/hardwares, telecommunications, online gambling, banks and logistics or even the vloggers will have majority of the wealth of the nation. More white hat hackers, as all are relying to online bank transactions and purchases using credit cards, we need these heroes to protect us from online fraud and theft.
I’m glad I was born in the early 80s because I’ve got to see technology advance over the years like using a pencil to reel in the tape on my cassette tapes 😂 to then move to cds. How many of us as a child got excited when we rented the latest film from blockbuster, got home opened up the case to find its not been rewound 😡 it felt like forever until it finished. 🤣 kids these day 😏
AUDIO MAN I’m ☮️1967✌🏻Been riding the wave & have been enjoying the ride since. Growing up in the late 60’s, 70’s & 80’s was PHENOMENAL. Today, TECHNOLOGY has skyrocketed as far as the 👁 can see... & our BRAIN/MIND could’ve EVER IMAGINED.
Technology is a wonderful thing, but, sometimes it can be dangerous. Terrorists can get together online to plan their evil. Children committing suicide because of abuse on their mobile phones. Yes technology is a wonderful thing, if only it was used for advancement, but humans can be very very cruel.
Isaac Asimov's prediction about learning from home was right all along with our current situation. School learning via Zoom meetings or other form or online conference vid calls made his prediction true.
Online learning has been around for over a decade. Your recent exposure to it doesn't mean it is just happening. His prediction came to pass quite some time ago.
All you need is Rytin Reading n Ritmitic. IT n AI Have it all for you,just have the thirst for learnin of your imagination.feasable visualizing creating to reality. Mr Isaac Asimov's kinda ryt predicting avail bility of self help educ.
Isaac Asimov was technically right about school. I learned more about math, historical figures, geology, etc from just RU-vid in the last few years then I ever learned in highschool.
Lol, take this video for instance. Some of these people I have never heard of. I'm still waiting for AI schooling, imagine getting custom courses designed to focus on subjects you specifically struggle in, and that further your understanding in the subjects you have a firm grasp of, with evan the ability to choose courses in things you are interested in, everything from foreign languages to computer engineering to aerodynamic. That is the schooling I want, although I'm thinking it should be for college courses first, it may slowly trickle its way to a high school class or two until eventually it is capable and trusted enough for full replacement or integration.
I rolled my eyes when the video said Asimov was wrong too. Maybe it’s not happening fast, but as a homeschooling mom for 13 years, with 3 kids who learn independently a lot, I know the numbers choosing to homeschool is increasing all the time. I don’t think schools will disappear necessarily but they need to change for sure.
@@michelekendzie my son is homeschooling now. Behavior wise he's grown leaps and bounds. Different kid now. Academically he's doing better than he ever has. Better by a large margin.
Absolutely, to an in depth video on KURZWEIL. He's definitely one of my favourites. Specifically for his work with augmentative communication for persons with disabilities. But, overall I have to say Tesla tops my list :)
That's what I think too. Someone brought him to the future of 0.00045% time divergence and saw internets and cell phones. Someone who came back from the future would be preceived as crazy.
@@houghwhite411 Y'all are Full of Shit ! Tesla had a dream 💭 about A.C. axle generators & like Franklin. Tesla also played with lighting 🌩⚡ & also that hindu mathmatician also had a dream 🐑 💭. Y'all don't like Tesla because he was an orthodox christian ! X , 🗼🛸 🚀 🛰
Imagine if Nikola Tesla lived to this day. It sounds like he knew exactly where technology was going, and sounds like it wasn't just a guess, but he had a very clear vision how things would proceed. His only limitation was time.
How far into the future? In 50 years, basically anything you can think of that isn't impossible or requiring extreme amounts of power, will be possible. We will have the matrix- like VR, we will live on other planets, we will have "unlimited" energy, we will be able to travel anywhere on the planet in an hour, we will be able to alter our DNA on the fly, we will be cyborgs, we will be able to talk with each other over the internet using our brains, there will be real AI, unless we all die first...
@@th3m3du54 Wow, that was long... Anyway we don't need socialism or even to care about others to achieve the things I mentioned, all we need to do is do what we do now.
If I were to choose six people which I thought to be the greatest of geniuses from the last 3000 years, unquestionably, Nicola Tesla would be one of them.
@@Volcaset 1984 is a WARNING! Not a prediction, 1984 is a warning that says "If a totalitarian government takes over a country, this is what it would look like", not a prediction that says "This is my 100% accurate prediction of the year 1984"
Government has always been a burden for the people. Always wanting control and full of greed. I honestly think we’d be better off without one, and let communities, towns, and cities form their own laws and rules. Of course the ppl come to an agreement without politicians pandering, and sticking their corrupt hands in it. Believe it or not, both parties are corrupt. The entire system is a fraud! I’m really hoping one day, a generation takes it down. It’s always been government vs. the people since forever. Time to change it! Burn Washington DC to the ground for all I care. Not advocating it, but my thoughts on the subject of the frauds and crooks ruling the country. Every single politician could pass away into the night, and the sun would still come up in the morning.
@@notofthisworld5267 If you burn it down, an new overlord will rise instead. And this time, you didn't get to vote for him even. Then if that matters...
What WE call a Cell Tower today was originally supposed to transmit Electricity wirelessly and FREE to everyone. Big Business was having no part in THAT, as they would lose money instead of feeding their greedy pockets. If you want proof, research Tesla's Wardencliffe Tower.
Except that he didn't. He was a great inventor, in fact without him I wouldn't be able to call you an idiot. But not because he invented the internet and cellphone according to you, but because he revolutionized AC electricity infrastructure. In your ignorance you are doing a great disservice to Martin Cooper and Tim Berners-Lee.
brian bowes what if god isn’t real? We cannot prove that a god exists, all we have is faith. That faith and hope, not many think life has meaning but you should craft it yourself.
They were all great predictors of future from their own specific time period. From Tesla to Stanley Kubrick, they all predicted quite well. And to think how incredible they mustve thought of our inventions while we take them for granted.
Bloomed??? We are held back soo much...only tech for AI and robots is released..if you dont believe backtrack the tech....medicine nop, new way of learning-hell no...different way of living-houses not really... No polution- making nature greener and use non pollution tech... Not much...We dont have good tech things...
I can bet cold fusion will become a novel but existing technology by 2025, while tokamaks and stellarators are a blind path, there is some interesting science on Birkeland curents and z-pinch fusion done in Europe.
Noura Bistami - Thanks jerk, that was very enlightening. That was very inspiring. Can't u just 👀 the rest of the galaxy & cosmic federation are just dying to meet us & greet us.
In an interview, Albert Einstein was asked, what does it feel like being the most intelligent person, Mr. Einstein replied, I don't know, why don't you ask Nicola Tesla...
@@joesterling4299 Kurzweil is only 86% correct according to his own evaluation which is incredibly biased in his favour. The real number is more like 36%: www.antropy.co.uk/blog/the-singularity-is-near-how-kurzweils-predictions-are-faring/
Tesla once said: "Someday we will have an information flowing so easily between the people, and when that happens, the trading between countries will increase, and the probability for war goes down to 0. Only when the world is connected entirely we will have no wars." Could say that he predicted the internet and globalism, too :)
It's interesting to note that virtually all of the supposed progress seems to be in the field of consumer electronics. What about transportation? Yeah, I know. Electric cars might be the coming thing, but there are still significant hurdles to be overcome. Where are the supersonic airliners? What about fusion power? What about solar power satellites? What about space travel, especially tourist space travel? I maintain that, for the average American, the overall experience of technological advance hasn't been all that great (except, of course, for consumer electronics).
school is not outdated or should i say shouldn't be, libraries are closing down everywhere, kids have constant access to the internet, but only access books in their own time if they so choose, they learn only what they google, they don't have to spell or do basic maths themselves, they don't even know what a handwritten letter is never mind know how to write one, it's all done for them the google way, listen Rinji Jake, with all due respect, think about it logically and you will realise our kids and grandkids are being brainwashed by whatever crap is fed into our pc's every minute of everyday, and by whom, they have no social skills, all social venues for both kids and adults are closing down around us, (even before this pandemic), even going weekly shopping is fading out, (again, on-line), clothes, xmas presents, eletrical goods, car parts, everything can be bought and accessed on line. We don't see our neighbours from 1 week to the next, we lack exercise, no wonder there is so much obesity in this country, technology is going to be the worst thing we ever invented
Not neccrssariarly, how are kids going to learn soft skills and interpersonal skills. Or do you want your child to become like little robots. The chinese are that way.
@@jonathanrivera9503 All we have is the "present". When we reach the "future", it's still the "present". Just a more advanced present than our present now.
@@jess.uraura you're correct. People say that we are living in the future of communication technology, science, etc. But what? We are living in the present.
Awesome video as usual...cracked me up though (online shopping): "what the wife selects on her console, will be paid for by the husband at his counterpart console"
He was spot on with this back in the 1960's when shopping could be done from catalogues for shopping so online shopping was the answer for anyone who has a computer or smart phone. In the 60's there wasn't that many women who went out to work to earn there own money as the husband would provide for his family. Today is different in that many women go out to work in many a variety of jobs from menial tasks to scientists, doctors etc.
You missed out on one of the biggest examples. Arthur C Clarke was the first one who thought of Geo stationary satellites and their communications potential. Something that came to pass exactly as he predicted and revolutionised world communications.
What about Jules Verne? Predicted America sending a moon mission down to the time of year, country and geographical location the launch happened? 100 years before it happened?!? For context that is when the civil war was taking place...
Mr. Tesla had such wonderful insights into the future. He is still a mystery to many people. He could see images of engines and run simulations in his head. It's a cliche that genius is close to madness. His behavior was erratic and most people probably just assumed the latter part of the cliche, methinks. Maybe some of his claims still need to be examined for hints.
Whilst I love your videos, I despair at your decision to use the brand name iPad(tm) instead of the generic 'tablet'. Given your popularity and reach, you're inadvertently giving that reprehensible, thieving company unwarranted positive exposure.
So impressed with the old movie film of people on the street, when they actually got dressed up to go out. No hoodies, ripped jeans, caps turned backward, Daisy Dukes or flip-flops.
When I was a kid, my Aunt, /cousins, etc.. would get dressed-up to go to trips to the mall, out to eat(nicer restaurants, not fast food) or watch a movie. I remember, when I first got married, feeling bad not being dress nicer to go to a nice restaurant. Now, no one cares
I can't afford nice clothes. So its jeans and cheap t-shirts for me. Flip flops are a dollar in the summertime... Sorry my poorness is adding to the uglification of society. :'(
As usual, I'm fascinated by another one of your excellent post. It's amazing what the mind is capable of, if given the ideal challenges and conducive environments. It seems that all it took for for these great visionaries, or futurists, was the mental will to project ideas in their heads, to see the needs and fulfillment of things that would make life better and the mechanics, the nuts and bolts that would give birth, if you will, to their visions. It also took those, who'd dare follow up on them, to make it happen, fulfilling their fantasies. The world is a better place because of them, that's no doubt. I think it's great, but I'm wondering why there seems to be no comparable knowledge or fanfare for the further development and refinement of the mind, with focus on the human brain, after all, *it* is the inspiration and work-shop of those fantasies that makes any invention possible. In Ecclesiastes, it states that there is nothing new under the Sun....Is it possible that *none* of the inventions or advances are new, but are just inspired from a Source of consciousness, the reservoir of True Knowledge available to any of us, who'd be willing participants in a spiritual reintroduction of things that were before.....in another time and possibly even another place? Something tells me that we've had a version of all of this before, but it was better. My own thoughts are that the reason it was better is possibly because those then had greater mental abilities; every aspect of their mental faculties were markedly sharper than ours is today. My point is that we should be focusing on developing ourselves, not just mentally, but emotionally, physically and most important... *spiritually* to out pace ANY development in computer technology. It looks like we are romanticizing and setting up ourselves for our own demise....at the hands or logical processes of the computer. Did we create our own true enemy?
I love how everything turns out to be more advanced than predicted. It's awesome to me how ideas come to fruition. Stephen Johnson's book on the subject is a good read.
That's true the tragedy is that the elitist took what Tesla wanted all to have for free and turned it into a money making machine, the elite has made their wealth on the backs of of our labor brow. Now they want to kill us off. All the money they have trillions how much is enough for these egotistical freaks. Not one of these people will take 1 penny with them when they die. In the end they will pay for all their crimes against humanity.
I don't think science fiction writers predict the future. They inspire it. If you look at most modern day revolutionary inventors they credit science fiction they read as a kid as inspiration. In fact all you have to do is look at the names of a lot of modern inventions to see this. It is frighteningly accurate because their ideas inspired the future, not predicted it.
read up on both men, they were very familiar with the people creating the brave new world they were writing about. Nada science-fiction there, just writing the minutes of the meetings in a form acceptable to the general public.
Gene Roddenberry's Star Trek deserves to be mentioned for it's influence on the future -- including smart phones, iPads, automatically opening doors, medical devices, and much more.
What I’m really looking forward to is laying down nice and comfortable on the doctors couch and having a few pulsating lights pass over my body and up pops the data showing I don’t have breast or cervical cancer rather than the intrusive and slightly humiliating methods we have to endure now. Likewise men would be more amenable to having their prostates checked. Roll on the trekkie methods.
When he died the Rothschilds bought 87% of j.p Morgan banks. They run the world. Passing grades have dropped. The united states ,is a mass of sheeple that ,follow w.e they're told.

I always appreciate that you keep your topics firmly grounded in reality, only attributing predictions to sources commonly cited and fairly verifiable. I'm also glad, though, I suppose I shouldn't be surprised, that Nikola Tesla was first on your list. lol
I wonder why people cannot believe COVID 19 was predicted. Humankind has always used biological weapons, natural weapons too. Just imagine if you wanted to destroy a country like China. Send in locusts for starters. The Arabs introduced opium to China about year 600 killing millions over the years, centuries even. Now China are sending methamphetamines to USA, just a couple of examples. WW1 mustard gas. Nuclear power is a force for good but what do mankind do? Weaponise it. We base our predictions on history, written, spoken and innate.
12:22 point -- Asimov partly redeemed by Corona. And note the date of vid's posting--March 6, 2020, which is just as the Corona shutdowns were starting.
Many schools have stupidly reopened though, thankfully most of my classes are still online, it's just also simply more convenient as well as also being safer.
I love this video. Thank you. Amazing timing too with regards to Isaac Asimov's prediction that technology will move the classroom into each students home. Two weeks ago I too would have considered this prediction incorrect. Two weeks later though? I don't know about other countries -- but in a Covid 19 world, and as you know here in Australia -- might we be looking at what could become the beginning of the end of the classroom as we know it? Trippy. Also -- the clip of 2001: A Space Odyssey; I was eating my lunch whilst watching your video on my iPad. That tripped me out too
It has been predicted that there will be great strides in medical care in the next few years. Can’t remember where I read it though. If the Chinese have started to experiment with bionics in human soldiers then it is another example of technology being used as weaponary but it could also be used to help people with injuries such as yours. Every thing has a negative and a positive effect. All the best to you.
Have you heard about medbeds? Once President Trump is in for four more years, this technology will be released very soon. From my understanding there are three types of medbeds, one for ailments, healing of bone and surgeries and mental health. You may think I'm crazy, just wait.
..he was working with John Trump and Presidents uncle was the only person he trusted. FBI May have grabbed much of his research, but they don’t have the last and final part. That he gave to John Trump. (He was a brilliant MIT Phd. Scientist) He worked on particle acceleration quantum physics. Trump/Tesla were fascinated with time travel. That is why Q talks about Project Looking Glass. When John Trump died, The research was inherited by Pres. Trump.
Gg Burg there is speculation that Julian Asante is John Trumps son, therefore President Trumps cousin. It would explain a lot if he is being protected by President Trump, and rightly so.
2001 A Space Odyssey made some remarkable techno-predictions including the wide 16:9 ratio flat-screen television (seen on the Pan Am shuttle to the revolving space station) Other projections of note: The "voice-print identification" and video-phone system. However (sadly) it was overly optimistic with the scale of intraspace travel and colonization of the moon within the time frame of the film's title.
I think that's because we assumed the scale of funding and effort that led to the moon landings would continue unabated. But the politics that made the US government pour so much wealth into the space program faded by the 70s. The public started losing interest too. ("Oh, look, another moon shot. **Yawn** What's for breakfast?") So there went that motivator.
Well said. Sadly, it's more economical in space travel to send software to run the machines than people. I really don't see the current human going anywhere. Unless we can get access to alien lavel tech.
lol... glad you saw that. A similar curse visible in "Blade Runner" futurism with the likes of 'Atari' and 'Koss'. In hindsight, there seems to be an inevitable demise with many corporations; their plugs in flicks destined to become classics - seems likely to bring bad luck of sorts.
@@c3cubed Atari and Koss are still with us, but they do not dominate like the used to. It only follows that there will be competition as technology advances.
I love this video, thank you. I only wish you had referenced some women inventors. Can you make a video highlighting women who predicted the future? It would mean a lot to me. Let me know!
Our textbooks were so biased for Edison, I never even heard of Tesla in high school. He put Edison to shame intellectually in every way imaginable, and all his journals were stolen when he died. His name only came up in a rock band and I’m pretty sure the kids had no idea where that name came from initially. Hail, Nikola!🏆
Wireless Electric to all homes had one problem. How could they charge enough money for it. Tesla wanted everyone to have the same options in life, but Edison wanted it for himself and for the rich. Same old stories. Tesla was brilliant but not a great salesmen. He was a great scientist and we are the fools that promote the talkers and not the person who can change the world and for the better.

Well, yes, but there are some who say it’s all happened before or we are in a parallel universe. Perhaps he read the bible, Ecclesiastes. There is nothing new under the sun, or What has been will be again. There is more in heaven and earth than we know. We can see from ancient edifices that there was one a technological intelligence on earth before the stone age .
The knowledge is already there, tune into the right frequency folks. Just cause we don't see an atom, does that mean it doesn't exist? As above, so below! Reading about knowledge is our current understanding of knowledge which is in essence time travel. You're acquiring knowledge from someone in the past, yet you have the choice to interpret it as it fits your experience.
It must have been frustrating to live beyond one's own time. Constantly explaining to others concepts that were so futuristic. Genius among kindergartners.
I was in a pub early 70s with friends we had the juke box on I said to my friends one day we will see the artists on a screen here as well - did I predict the future ?!!
Covid isn't the catalyst for this technology online school has been around for over a decade. Thankfully the technology was in place prior to COVID or this current generation would be well behind in their studies.
