Apple predicted touchscreen devices, Siri, and Skype/Facetime down to the year.
Back in 1987, Apple released a video about the future of computing called “Knowledge Navigator.” It features a touchscreen device, digital personal assistant (the knowledge navigator – a “Bill Nye” style man) and video calling. Amazingly, the date is depicted as September 16th, 2011, which is only about 18 days off from all of those features having been available in phone/tablet format.
