Most of his predictions are nonsense, and show a lack of understanding of the logical foundations of modern computing. His assertion that instruction sets are "obsolete" is absurd. The Turing/Von Neumann computer uses an instruction set and RAM to do computing. He is proposing some nebulous jelly computer that would be unprogrammable.
The idea that ordinary people can write their own OS is laughable. There are several million lines of code in every OS related to just drawing and responding to a text entry field. There aren't even 100 people who know the TrueType language which underlies all font rendering. The last small team generated OS of any accomplishment was the Oberon project at ETH, and that was decades ago, before the web, and his team of very smart people were not ordinary.
Hardware has to evolve with software. Intel cross-point memory tech, which was marketed under the Optane name, failed because people didn't know how to use it properly. New hardware will easily be stunted if it can't get traction. Look at the failure of the Adapteva Epiphany chip. It was a 10X improvement in computation per watt, but nobody knows how to program/debug a chip with thousands of independent cores.
The underlying mathematics that we all use originates from linear, sequential, Greek Proof, and we have no parallel logic math developed yet.
