Note that with futurology, 30-50 years of science press has promised the "next big thing". Better batteries, flying cars, online shopping, tablet computers, fusion power.

Some of these things minimal instrumental progress was made on in 50 years, others are now reality.

The Singularity just might happen for real before people become jaded.
