(Pretty) Clear vision of the future
"I guarantee you that Moore's Law will not end on my watch. Nobody in tech wants to be the guy who goes down in history for killing Moore's Law -- and it sure won't be me."Here's Moore's Law if you don't know what it is: Wikipedia on Moore's Law.
- Intel CEO Paul S. Otellini from "Intel Reboots for the 21st Century"

Computer power/capacity keeps doubling every 18-24 months, and computers will be about 1000x more powerful in 20 years than they are today.
These numbers make the future a little clearer... technology will continue to dominate and transform society. As long as Moore's Law continues, the (crazy) technology predictions like those of Ray Kurzweil are still on the table.
singularity is nearer... yow, bill
