Tesla's 2025 Platform Dominance
Share
Summary: While in prison, Martin Shkreli made various predictions about the future of technology, including specific forecasts about self-driving cars and Tesla.
"Let me read you some predictions for 2025. Self-driving cars are the successor to mobile computing - they trend upwards, people spend 8 hours a day in their car. Tesla nears $10 trillion market cap, and Musk becomes the first trillionaire.
For 2026, an AI-generated song, maybe GPT-4, gets created with zero human editing and direct participation and charts on Billboard.
By 2030, virtual reality/metaverse is ubiquitous, widely used. All you needed was a comfortable ergonomic optical interface - that was the limiting item. Also by 2030, self-driving cars reach majority penetration in the US, car accidents drop by more than 50%.
He goes out to 2050, making predictions like the lifespan for a newborn is now 100 to 125 years, 90% of nonsurgical medicine is automated, and most contract law is automated on chain."
