Apple's 1987 Prediction Comes True

Apple's iPhone 4S announcement had many feeling a little déjà vu. That's because the phone's new language-based voice assistant called Siri, which can converse with iPhone owners, was the apple of Apple's eye decades before yesterday's announcement. In 1987, Apple released a video showing its prediction of a voice-based personal assistant on a touchscreen computer. In the video a professor goes over his schedule with his touchscreen computer's virtual assistant. The professor's calendar says it's September 16. When he asks his virtual assistant for a research paper from five years ago, the assistant pulls up a paper from 2006. That means the 1987 video was set to take place in September 2011, just one month before Apple will actually release the same voice-based assistant technology. The eerie coincidence was not lost on social media. @TechCrunch called it "Siri-ous Mind Blowing," and @jws7 says it's a "Spooky future prediction from Apple."
