* Cities: By rights, he should be correct about cities, but instead humans are all being forced into cities even though there is no particular need to.
* Planetary engineering: We seem to be able to change the environment of this world but are nowhere near doing it to other ones yet.
* Primates: Nowhere near that one.
* Replicators: nowhere near this yet.
* Suspended animation: I have heard this discussed for decades but AFAIK no one has managed to achieve a decent version of it.
* Telecommunication: largely correct.
* Transhumanism: he talks about the evolutionary potential but not about the potential costs, or how certain forces could use it to control others.
