PKD was able to tap into so many things throughout his life.
Many consider PKD to be the American equivalent of Jules Verne.
PKD was born a century after JV & was able to see so many things that had become reality since JVs time.
JV lived long enough to see a movie about people traveling to the moon.
PKD could see the actual lunar landing on TV & lived long enough to see the start of the STS era.
PKD died in the month of March, as did JV.
If PKD had lived into his 70s, he might have had as many published novels as JV.
JV lived long enough to see how the telephone was becoming a common thing.
PKD lived long enough to see the dawn of the cell phone & the laptop computer.
So would an octogenarian PKD be impressed with a pocket computer known as the iPhone?
Perhaps, but he was looking far beyond anything like a conventional smartphone.
By the mid 1950s, PKD realized something that today might be called a Quantum Search Engine.
Using something like a Temporal Web Browser, one could skip a head to see various probable moments in the local future.
Scanning & glimpsing distant future times could reveal plenty of unrecognizable things.
Of course if time & space is part of a vast interactive recording & program, then one could also look into key moments in the local & distant past.
A big info-dilemma remains for humanity, unless one is a natural psychic, Temporal Web Browsing will be off limits to the general public. However, some people will still develop their own Temporal Browsing Software & hack into the universe to reveal plenty of mysteries & secrets.
Of course JV & PKD are just a couple of visionary writers & thinkers on a list that almost seems endless. Terence Mckenna

There are several implications about the ability to see-the-future.
