Guys, they just make a movie out of what could happen in the future.

It's just some predictions about what could be made, based on the prototype right now. remember how fast did the phone turned into a cheap touchscreen based from old black and white phone from 2000-2011?

that is quite fast, so they made some real predictions. their predictions aren't really far from reality, it's still make-able, with an explanation of how it works. maybe, something is quite strange, that's because they really had to cover every single probabilities (they do a good job to it).

i recommend anyone to watch it, it's an eye-opener. especially for scientists and scientist wannabes. don't be cynical because everything is just a visual effects. it's just (good) predictions.
