  1. I was terrific when I was reading the article. I think he really studied world´s changes and he predicted the future in a perfect way. Although there are things he predicted that never happened, Asimov was right in most of predictions.
    I was surprised when I read that a lot of things he predicted are happening now.

  2. The truth is that this video impressed me. I want to know how isaac asimov could predict what would happen. How he knew that we would have a machine in which we can find information about anything?.
    He was absolutely brilliant. A genius, the only person who could think in that way and visualised the future. For me in that years, he was seen like a crazy man, nobody would think like isaac.

  3. well, i think he is right saying that technology will increase our knowledge in what we are interested in and another thing that i agree is that nowdays everyone is available to learn whatever we want no matter the age - Selena Facenda

  4. Asimov was good at predicting the future and in order to do that, a great knowledge is quite necessary. Anyway I think that predicting a huge technology advance didn't use to be so difficult as they got to see it everyday. Humans and technology are evolving since the very first beginning so, that's why nowadays there might be lots of people who can predict the future perfectly as well.

  6. I think that this is a really interesting video. It surprised me how sure Isaac Asimov was about the use of the internet in the future. Also his prediction about the computers is very interesting, that now them can be used in most of the schools in the world. He said that this type of technology were going to be universal on the future, like them are now. I agree with him about he said about the people that stop learning. They do this because they are ashamed to continue learning in an old age, but they shouldn´t be, because there is no reason to be ashamed.

  7. It´s really interesting what Isaac Asimov said, twenty years before. I think that he could predicted a part of the internet nowadays, because he thought that people would use internet to learn, and I think that its not like that. Also, he forgot to include social networks, which (in my opinion) are one of the most "things" of internet that peolple use. Furthermore, Isaac thought that kids and teenagers would be similar to kids and teenagers of that time, and now, the thought of the society has changed.They use internet to have fun,in order to learn, in the most of cases.
