Forecasting the future is not the exclusive domain of futurists, so we looked at what experts in a wide variety of areas have had to say in the past year about what tomorrow may bring.
The end of Moore's law ... bad news for allergy sufferers ... good news for secular human- ists ... and everything in the world will talk to everything else. These are just a few of the best predictions we heard in 2013.
For this special report, the editors of TFIE FUTURIST turned our attention outward to what busi- ness and government leaders, top scientists, major institutions, and even celebrities were saying about the future and how we'll get there.
A prediction can be "good" for a variety of reasons besides a likelihood of coming true. We looked for boldness, soundness, urgency, and perhaps the reve- lation of a previously unseen trend.
No prediction is absolute. We offer these to you as ideas that speak to the future we are creating, but it's only the future that exists at this moment in time.

Big data will make more big business decisions.
The story: We'll be generating more data-35ZB in 2020, or 44 times more data than in 2009. The industry analyzing all that data will more than triple by 2018 (
Bottom line: Big data will heavily shape the next era of humanity and will determine tomorrow's winners and losers.

Moore's law will be dead and buried by 2022.
The story: Moore's law refers to the ability to pack twice as many transis- tors on the same sliver of silicon every two years.
It will be an anticlimactic future for us all if he's right. Technological change is going to continue, but at a much slower rate, and the near future may end up looking much more like the present than many might hope. Anticipated game changers like intelligent machines and ubiquitous Web-connected cars will all take much longer to roll out.
BUT... History is full of pessimis- tic predictions about technology's limits that turned out to be wrong: No one will want a personal com- puter... Flumans will never fly... There will never be more than a few hundred automobiles. Who's to say-maybe progress awaits only one new tech- nical breakthrough to keep on going. Quantum computing could be the next step after silicon.
Bottom line: They say all good things must come to an end. Perhaps that includes the ongoing accelera- tion of computational processing power. Time and human inventive- ness will tell.

By 2028, your eyes and pulse will tell your teacher if you are learning.
The story: Educators (or education systems) will measure their students' biological responses, including pulse, sweat, and eye position, for a real- time understanding of how their stu- dents are mentally interacting with material, according to
Educational institutions are not al- ways eager to embrace the opportu- nities of technological change, yet no field is going to feel the influence of this change more in the next 10 years than is education.
Heick backs up his prediction with a road map explaining how we get to there from here. First, in 2015, adaptive computer-based testing re- places those terrible no. 2 pencil tests, and game-based learning truly catches on. Next, in 2018, open- sourced learning models replace standard curriculums as we know them today.
BUT... The field of education has seen a number of fads come and go over the years. In decades past, some claimed that at-home correspon- dence-based education would close the schools; then it was the advent of at-home lectures and classes on VHS; then, computers for every stu- dent; today, MOOCs (massively open online courses). All of these in- novations are important, but they never succeeded in replacing the classroom model.
Bottom line: The world will al- ways need educators, but the defini- tion of education could change sig- nificantly, hopefully for the better, in the coming decade.

Your dreams will be program- mable within the next 15 years.
The story: People will be able to im- merse themselves in gaming envi- ronments and control their own en- tertainment experiences. They will even control their own dreams: "You're just going to put a hat on or plug into the computer and create your own world,"
BUT... Storytellers still need to come up with content. "You still have to tell stories," Lucas said. "Some people will want to be in a game... and some people will want to have a story told to them. Those are two different things. But the con- tent always stays the same. The con- tent hasn't changed in 10,000 years."

Intelligent devices could allow you to "put a chicken in the oven, and the oven says, 'ah ha, chicken,"' explains
BUT... This vision of the Internet of Things has "almost gone by the wayside," Negroponte says, because of the spread of iPhone apps that al- low for the remote control of everything from car doors to secu- rity systems. The result is that the app "sucks the intelligence out of the device."
What would be better would be to imbed actual smarts into our envi- ronment, not just turn our living world into one big extension of a de- vice not everyone owns. The latter may be easier to develop for as a programmer, but as Negroponte asks, "What if you forget your phone?"
Bottom line: The world around us is about to get a lot smarter and more interactive. The jury is out on whether it gets better.

Living in "Cloud Cuckoo Land": Risks of Predicting in Public
Tasked last summer with describing the state of their nation a decade hence, ministers in French President
The housing minister declared that all will be housed. The finance min- ister predicted that all will have jobs. And the minister for industrial re- covery foresaw "a factory of the future" and super-fuel-efficient cars.
Sample sound bite from Cécile Duflot, housing minister: "Everyone will have a roof over their heads in a quality environment.... Access to hous- ing will no longer be a stress factor. Finding a home will even become a pleasant step in people's lives."
The reaction, as re- ported by the
The world will become predominantly secular by 2041.
Who said that:
The story: Secularism in general is an indicator of a nation's economic development. It's associated with quality-of-life factors like improved education, longer lives, and more equitable income distribution, says Barber. To make his forecast, he ex- amined GDP and the human devel- opment index (HDI) to compare rates of economic development and average religious views-measured as those who believe in God or view religion as important.
"I calculated four estimates of when the average country in the world is likely to transition to a secu- lar majority, and the average estimate was 2041," he writes. 'The more reli- able HDI method predicts an earlier transition than does GDP alone."
Barber's book was published in 2012, but thanks to liberties taken by journalists anxious to cite an expert opinion on the "end of religion," Barber was able to clarify himself in a 2013
BUT... "All such extrapolation is notoriously risky, of course, and all bets would be off if the world fell into a 20-year depression," Barber warns.
Bottom line: Religion will not dis- appear, but it will lose clout as it becomes the minority view in more societies. Bellwethers of this trend include

Marriage could be extinct by 2042.
The story: UN statistics show that "87% of the world's population lives in countries with marriage rates that have fallen since the 1980s," writes
Why great: Young women have more education, independence, and options. Interestingly, however, it is college-educated women who are slowing the decline in marriage.
BUT... Widening acceptance of same-sex marriage may give the trend at least a short-term uptick. There is no denying the powerful appeal of weddings-and the reve- nues they generate for business. Trend extrapolation is a risky busi- ness, especially when it comes to so- cial values, and "major demographic trends usually don't just smash into 0 or 100 percent, so I don't expect that," notes Cohen.
Bottom line: Society has trans- ferred many of the family's roles to markets and public services. Rela- tionships still matter, but the sym- bolic gesture of putting a ring on it may become passé.
Source: The Atlantic ("How to Live in a World Where Marriage Is in De- cline," online
World population will reach 9.6 billion in 2050 and 10.9 billion in 2100.
The story: The raw numbers reflect a great deal of complex global and re- gional data, and the UN offers ranges of predictions based on changes in many variables. The most important variable in projecting global population growth may be the female fertility rate, which gener- ally declines as economies develop, but longevity has become an increas- ingly significant factor.
BUT... Like many predictions, this one is conditional. The numbers of- fered here are the UN's medium- variant projection and assume con- tinued fertility decline. In the low-variant projection, world popu- lation begins to decline around mid- century and fall to around 5 billion or 6 billion in 2100. In the high-vari- ant, 16.6 billion people will expect accommodations in 2100.
Bottom line: This projection trans- lates to an average of 81 million ad- ditional humans a year. And it's not just that there will be more of us; we'll also be poorer and older.

Tobacco could kill as many as 1 billion people this century.
Why great: We've been warned, and we can act. Deaths from diseases stemming from tobacco use are pre- ventable, and more nations are put- ting more effort into helping citizens break their addiction. Strategies in- clude banning tobacco advertising, taxing tobacco products, requiring warning labels, and restricting smoking in public buildings, includ- ing (in

Bottom line: Tobacco is the lead- ing cause of preventable deaths, the CDC reminds us. The current global rate of approximately 6 million to- bacco-related deaths a year will grow to 8 million a year by 2030, if current trends continue.

"This Baby Will Live to Be 120."
Who said that:
BUT... Most people don't believe it and don't want it; we simply can't en- vision ourselves as happy at age 120. Two-thirds of U.S. adults surveyed by Pew said they thought other people might undergo life-extending medical procedures, but 56% said they them- selves would not. More than half (51%) said radical life extension was "bad for society."
Bottom line: The long-term trend is toward increased human life spans. When put in terms of break- throughs such as "cure for cancer" or "artificial limbs," people are gen- erally positive about potential life-extending developments. Afraid of being bored, lonely, or broke as a supercentenarian? Deal with it.

More than 6 million years' worth of video will be available to watch online by 2016.
The story: More than half (55%) of current Web traffic is already video based, and individuals spend an av- erage of 2,000 minutes each month watching video, observes
The videos are shorter, thanks to apps like Vine and Instagram. Social media is putting more visual com- municators to work, and the most creative "vine-ographers" are gain- ing huge followings-attracting the attention of advertisers.
BUT ... Audiences know when they're being sold. The trick for brands is to engage without abusing the attention that consumers are willing to pay, however fleeting.
Bottom line: The pressure is on all communicators to get attention and get to the point. Commercials on television are already getting shorter-even a 30-second ad seems long-winded to many viewers. Be- ware the ever-shrinking attention span of the general public.

The market for printed books will collapse by 2020.
Who said that:
What he said: "There will always be a market for printed books, just as there is still a market for vinyl rec- ords and fountain pens. But the real future, a golden future, for books and reading is digital. All things con- sidered, I expect the print book mar- ket to collapse on
Why great: In reporting on the re- cent plateauing of ebook sales (due to early adopters and a quick satura- tion of the market), Cole observes several trends that may still prove troubling to traditional book pub- lishers-principally the rise of digi- tal natives to economic power.
Today, people buy books wherever they are exposed to them-physical books when they're in bookstores or libraries, and ebooks when they're reading online. Physical and digital books have different feels, and even- tually, Cole believes, ebooks will simply "feel" right to most readers, because that's what will have domi- nated their reading choices.
BUT... Consider the source. Cole's eBooks.com, founded in 1997, is a leading independent ebook-store, and his
Bottom line: Demographics and technology are preceding economics here. The cost of a digital platform makes ebooks seem more market- able, but readers actually pay for content, not platform. Knowledge, ideas, and stories contained in books-both commercial and aca- demic-have inherent value, and most authors still expect to be paid accordingly.
Authors with other means of sup- port may be willing to go the Cre- ative Commons route and surrender royalties for the convenience of reaching a large digital audience. The fact that many authors already bypass the slow-moving process of traditional book publishing in favor of self-editing and publishing their work should be more troubling to the print industry-and to readers who appreciate quality.

The world will reach the end of strong economic growth.
The story: The International Mone- tary Fund (IMF) has revised down several of its recent economic growth forecasts, reflecting declining confidence in the global economy.
"We are entering an age of perma- nently slow growth-at best," pre- dicts international security specialist Nafeez Ahmed in The Guardian. Sev- eral factors are to blame: Environ- mental regulations, taxes, inequality, and the rising cost of resources.
BUT ... A transition to renewable energy sources could speed up eco- nomic growth. As resources become cheaper, new technology will be less costly to develop and manufacture, leading to greater technological in- novation.
Bottom line: Many variables will factor into global growth rates, and it's hard to predict whether the slow economic growth that the world has experienced in recent years is a bump in the road or part of a long- term trend.

A successful test of nuclear fusion will occur by 2017.
The story: The world desperately needs highly productive energy sources that don't emit toxic pollut- ants and greenhouse gases. Nuclear fusion, on paper at least, is just such an energy source. Fusion reactions are essentially carbon-free, like con- ventional nuclear fission reactions, but they also deliver much more en- ergy per reaction and leave virtually no deadly radiation in their wake. This energy source could be just what our species needs to finally make a long-term break from fossil fuels.
BUT... Nuclear fusion has some of the same downsides as nuclear fis- sion. First, developing it is hugely expensive, due to the huge amounts of energy needed to catalyze fusion reactions and sustain them. Second, fusion reactions will leave some vol- umes of nuclear waste-less waste than fission reactions do, but still too much for a hypothetical fusion plant to conveniently stash in a depot on site. So nuclear fusion reactors won't necessarily be easier to roll out on a worldwide scale than fission plants, and they may face very similar waves of public opposition.
Bottom line: Commentators have expressed sky-high expectations for nuclear fusion for more than 45 years. In just a few more years, we may find out if this hypothetical en- ergy source lives up to them.

Renewables will account for a quarter of global energy consumption by 2018.
Why great: Renewable energy sources-solar energy, wind power, hydroelectricity, geothermal heat, and so on-are growing faster than any other energy sector. By 2018, they'll likely comprise a fourth of all energy consumption. This constitutes a sizable increase from 2006, when renewables constituted just 2% of energy use.
That's good news for the earth: Re- newable energy sources have far less environmental impact than conven- tional energy sources like oil and natural gas. And we don't really have to worry about exhausting the planet's supply of, for example, solar energy the way we do with coal and other fossil fuels.
BUT... Energy consumption is still increasing. So even though we'll be using more renewable energy, we'll still be using a lot of energy from nonrenewable sources.
Renewable energy also faces pol- icy hurdles. Many policies favor fos- sil fuels over clean energy sources. For instance, governments subsidize fossil fuels at rates six times greater than those given for renewables. Would-be investors are less likely to back renewable energy sources when policies don't provide a reli- able and predictable framework for invest- ment.
Bottom line: Renew- able energy sources are better for the planet, and we're going to con- tinue using more of them. But policy uncer- tainty could dampen growth.

U.S. crude oil imports will fall 32% by 2020.
The story: Oil and natural-gas ex- traction in
Why great: A massive shakeup in world oil markets appears to be in the works, and its implications are many. A one-third drop in oil im- ports would be big enough to alter U.S. relations with the oil-rich Mid- dle East and may lessen U.S. in- volvement in Middle Eastern affairs.
There may also be a substantial growth in jobs related to natural gas in
BUT... It's always possible, albeit not likely, that some wild-card breakthrough in renewable energy in the next few years could make for another and even bigger shakeup, one that tilts world demand away from fossil fuels.
Bottom line: For now, at least, it's clear that fossil-fuel extraction everywhere will keep increasing. The whole world risks sinking into a deeper ecological hole and suffering even bigger shocks once fuel sup- plies tap out. The markets for fossil fuels are just going to keep getting bigger, but the supplies of those fos- sil fuels are not. The world needs to step up development of clean alter- natives sooner and not later.

The number of fast-charging electric vehicle stations worldwide will grow a hundredfold, from around 2,000 today to 200,000 in 2020.
Why great: Most consumers recog- nize combustible fuel engines' envi- ronmental harms, and the high price of gasoline hits many household budgets hard. Until now, electric ve- hicles have not been a very popular alternative, due in large part to the difficulty of finding places to re- charge their batteries. It looks like businesses are now working to solve the problem and put the missing in- frastructure in place. If this contin- ues, then petroleum-free transporta- tion could at last become a realistic option for car owners everywhere.
BUT... It will take a lot of electric- ity to keep all those new electric ve- hicles charged and running. We'll have to get that electricity from somewhere. What will the source be, if not fossil fuels? We'll have to work that out.
Bottom line: The era of electric ve- hicles may finally be upon us, and not a moment too soon, considering the pace of climate change and oil supply depletion.

Transportation-related energy consumption will double worldwide by 2050.
The story: Traffic is getting worse, not better. It's a clear net positive for car manufacturers and their work- forces, but it's a troubling develop- ment for everyone else.
All those added cars are going to emit more and more climate-altering greenhouse gases into the atmo- sphere and aggravate an already se- rious global warming problem. They will also consume greater volumes of oil with prices already higher than consumers everywhere would like. Residents in cities will have it even worse, in that their lungs will con- tend with the extra smog coming from those cars' tailpipes.
Bottom line: The world's cities have many, many cars in their future, and they had better think ahead on what they will do with all of them.

The number of severe heat waves will quadruple by 2040.
The story: A 2009 heat wave over southern
It's estimated that about 5% of the earth's land is currently covered by "extreme" heat waves-up from just 1% in 1960. By 2040, severe heat waves will quadruple, covering about a fifth of land, no matter how much we curb greenhouse gas emis- sions. If emissions keep increasing, that number could jump to 85% by the end of the century.
The increases will disproportion- ately affect the tropics, though very little of the earth will be out of harm's way. The consequences are dire: Heat waves can kill people and animals, set fire to forests, and cause large-scale crop failure.
Bottom line: Heat wave increases through 2040 may be unavoidable now, but if we limit greenhouse gas emissions, we may be able to limit their spread in the years after that.

Allergies will worsen over the next three decades.

By 2040, pollen counts are pro- jected to double. This won't be your run-of-the-mill ragweed allergy: Pol- len formed under these conditions contains more proteins than usual and is a super potent allergen. Mean- while, mold and dust also thrive un- der warm, carbon-dioxide-rich con- ditions, leading to even more severe allergies and asthma-conditions that can sometimes lead to death.
BUT... We can hope for a medical breakthrough to control allergies and asthma, but, barring that, there's not really a silver lining here.
Bottom line: About 50 million Americans currently suffer from seasonal allergies. That number is going to increase over the next few dec- ades.

Global sea level will rise up to four feet by 2100.
The story: Since 1880, sea level has risen by eight inches-the fastest it's increased in at least 2,000 years. But this record rate is about to be eclipsed, thanks to climate change. As atmospheric temperature rises, so does the earth's water temperature. Water molecules expand as they heat up, causing the ocean to rise and shorelines to recede. Melting glaciers and ice sheets at the poles will only exacerbate matters.
Forecasting just how much sea level will rise is difficult. In its most conservative estimates,
BUT... Certain weather conditions can delay, though not prevent, oceans' expansion. From 2010 to 2011, three atmospheric patterns converged over the Pacific and Indian oceans, creating so much rain in
Bottom line: Al- though sea level isn't always rising at a consistent pace, it seems that significant in- creases are inevita- ble.

"Superstorms" like hurricanes
The story:
If the atmosphere heats up by 1°C, we can expect three to four times as many superstorms. But if forecasts hold true and temperatures rise by 2°C, the number of superstorms will increase tenfold by 2100. With the rise of superstorms, we'll experience a surge in hurricane-related devasta- tion to infrastructure, the environ- ment, and human life.
BUT... Whether strong hurricanes increase is conditional. If the earth's temperature doesn't rise as pro- jected, we won't see as dramatic a rise in superstorms. If ocean water does warm as projected, there are still other factors, such as climate cycles, that play a role in hurricanes' forma- tion.
Bottom line: By century's end, we're going to deal with strong hur- ricanes more often. Exactly how of- ten is still up in the air.
