It’s really impressed the number of people and organisations that are repeatedly and consistently wrong keep getting their views repeated as if they’re infallible geniuses.

Bill Gates, Elon Musk, Gartner, and so on are just laughably uninformed about most of the things that they talk about. You can do pretty well betting against whatever they get excited by.

I’m not right all the time, but if my track record for prediction was as bad as these folks I’d refrain from making any statement about the future more precise than ‘tomorrow will probably be’.
