Wow, there's a surprising number of predictions he nailed here. One of the most impressive is the suggestion that "newly devised automation procedures could translate from logic diagram to technological realization without any special engineering" -- hinting at the possibility of logic synthesis, which wouldn't become viable until well into the 1980s (AFAIK?), but is now the standard methodology for complex digital ICs.
