Take a world-class science fiction writer in 1964 and ask him to write down what he envisions for the future 50 years hence. Isaac Asimov’s predictions have some uncanny accuracy and are pretty amazing.
Here’s the thing about science fiction: It’s often more about the present than the future. Unencumbered by the details of today’s world, science fiction can make audiences think about modern issues without getting bogged down with the details and prejudices that might make them less open-minded.
