So you agree that the majority of people read on computers before 1999. Therefore Kurzweil’s 1999 prediction wasn’t what you claim it to mean.
Either he foresaw the future of smartphones, tablets and ebooks but was off by 5 years or he was an idiot who didn’t know what was happening in the 1990’s. In your ignorance you have argued that Kurzweil is an idiot.
Your reply will be “incorrect” because you have no ability to write a logical response.
Re: reading on computers
As I said, if that’s the criteria then that predates 1999. The Internet exploded in 1995. People were reading on their computers before 1999.
Reading didn’t change until everyone had a smartphone which happened after 2009. Only 17% had a smartphone in 2009.
Reading didn’t change until everyone had a smart watch?
You’re going to have to give some source for that.
And blogs and forums didn’t explode, domains exploded.
Blogs and forms and online reading exploded in the 2000s.
You’re a decade off again.
But you know who is correct on that prediction?
Kurzweil

62% in 1999. 77% 2010.
So only a small change in PC use which means only a small change in the ability to read on a computer.
Smartphone adoption rate went from 0 in 2007 to 95% today. So everyone now has a computer.

Oh. So, “the majority of reading” was arguably digital.
Cool.
Paass
Majority was already in 1999.
Fail.
How are you judging that?
62% is a majority.
Yes, you’re agreeing with me.
