Every time he thought he had a breakthrough, he found that a sci-fi author had already imagined itโsometimes decades earlier. And thatโs the secret. Science fiction authors donโt wait for technology to catch up. They dream freely, unshackled by whatโs possible today. Take Luckeyโs work in AR/VR for soldiers. It feels cutting-edge now, but Starship Troopers described it in ๐๐๐๐. Autonomous fighter jets? People imagined them ๐๐๐ ๐ฒ๐๐๐ซ๐ฌ ๐๐ ๐จ. This pattern repeats across industries: ๐๐จ๐จ๐ฆ? Sci-fi predicted video calls before they existed. ๐๐ข๐ซ๐ข? Voice assistants appeared in Star Trek first. ๐๐๐ฌ๐ฅ๐? Electric cars were sci-fi long before Elon. ๐๐ก๐ ๐ฅ๐๐ฌ๐ฌ๐จ๐ง? ๐๐๐ฆ๐-๐๐ก๐๐ง๐ ๐ข๐ง๐ ๐ข๐๐๐๐ฌ ๐๐ซ๐๐งโ๐ญ ๐๐ซ๐๐๐ญ๐๐โ๐ญ๐ก๐๐ฒโ๐ซ๐ ๐ซ๐๐๐ข๐ฌ๐๐จ๐ฏ๐๐ซ๐๐. If youโre stuck, donโt try to force inspiration. Go back and ๐ซ๐๐๐ ๐ฌ๐๐ข๐๐ง๐๐ ๐๐ข๐๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง. Find ideas that were too early when they were written. Technology has caught upโnow theyโre just waiting for someone like you to build them. The future has already been imagined. ๐๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐ฃ๐จ๐ ๐ข๐ฌ ๐ญ๐จ ๐๐ซ๐ข๐ง๐ ๐ข๐ญ ๐ญ๐จ ๐ฅ๐ข๐๐. I hope you've found this helpful.
