A business leader in design and manufacturing, Mark Thek holds the title of president of Easterline Power Systems, a company specializing in electrical power distribution systems for rail and aerospace programs. Mark Thek oversees nearly 3,000 employees around the globe and is responsible for growing the company's operations and sales, including developing innovations in switching technologies for a variety of applications. Author of the book Quantification of Human Emotion, Mark Thek loves reading and writing and counts Isaac Asimov among his famous authors. Born in Russia in 1920, Isaac Asimov is widely considered one of the most impressive science fiction authors ever to live. During his career, he also taught biochemistry at Boston University, where he authored more than 90,000 scientific books, postcards, and letters and 500 published volumes. Back in 1983, Asimov actually made several predictions for the year 2019. Some were pretty accurate while others fell short. Here are three of his predictions: 1. Asimov described a "life rich in leisure" due to fewer work demands. 2. He predicted "routine clerical and assembly line jobs" will be the first to disappear. 3. Lastly, Asimov said reliance on computers will be commonplace "to the growing complexity of society." Comments are closed.
