I came across this story today and was blown away on how brilliant Nikola Tesla was.

Check out part of this 1926 interview where Tesla predicted the creation of the smartphone.

“When wireless is perfectly applied the whole earth will be converted into a huge brain, which in fact it is, all things being particles of a real and rhythmic whole. We shall be able to communicate with one another instantly, irrespective of distance. Not only this, but through television and telephony we shall see and hear one another as perfectly as though we were face to face, despite intervening distances of thousands of miles; and the instruments through which we shall be able to do his will be amazingly simple compared with our present telephone. A man will be able to carry one in his vest pocket.”

I sometimes catch myself wondering what life will be like 100 years from now, and realize I don’t have a clue. And for you guys out there thinking about the new world order, consider what else Tesla told the interviewer.

“This struggle of the human female toward sex equality will end in a new sex order, with the female as superior. It is not in the shallow physical imitation of men that women will assert first their equality and later their superiority, but in the awakening of the intellect of women.”
