Sci-Fi DNA

Science fiction works that predicted this trend's underlying concepts before the real-world signals existed - cultural reach measures how widely each prediction was actually seen.

First predicted in fiction as early as 1977, roughly 49 years ahead of real-world signals.

Frequently Asked Questions

A gap is a real use case for this trend within that sector where we found no confirmed company already building it - shown in amber, distinct from use cases with known company examples.

Each company example is a real, named company we identified as operating in that specific use case - not a generic industry placeholder.

A trend doesn't apply evenly everywhere - sectors are only listed here when we found genuine intersection between this trend and real activity in that sector, so the count reflects actual reach, not a fixed quota.
