“市场力量”
用英语怎么说？

Today I want to share some lines from the January 2000 issue of WIRED magazine. The issue is themed around predictions. They asked many experts to talk about what the future would look like. It is a window into what people expected back then. For example, Eric Schmidt predicted his primary concern would be extending life. Bruce Sterling warned that market forces would conquer science, making it indistinguishable from product development. Additionally, skateboarder Tony Hawk wished for an archive of every show ever made and access to security cameras worldwide. Finally, Nathan Myrvhold correctly predicted that television would become an internet video service within three decades. This shows how some futurists were very accurate about technology.

今天我想分享2000年1月《有线》杂志中的几句话。这一期是以预测为主题的。他们邀请了许多专家来畅谈未来会是什么样子。这是了解当时人们期望的一个窗口。例如，埃里克·施密特预测他的主要关注点将是延长寿命。布鲁斯·斯特林警告说，市场力量将征服科学，使其与产品开发无法区分。此外，滑板运动员托尼·霍克希望建立一个包含有史以来所有节目的档案馆，并能访问全球的监控摄像头。最后，内森·米尔沃尔德准确地预测了电视将在三十年内变成互联网视频服务。这表明一些未来学家对技术的预测是非常准确的。
