Ray Kurzweil has predicted pretty much every modern technology.

Granted it’s his job, but when you’re right almost 90% of the time, that’s pretty darn impressive. Ray Kurzwell is a professional futurist who has a stunning 89/108 technology predictions completely correct.  In his books, he has accurately predicted the rise and use of eBooks, Nano machines, the (internet) cloud, and wireless Internet in general. But it doesn’t stop with technology. He’s also predicted the timing of events such as the fall of the Soviet Union and when a computer bested a human at chess.
