I think the way entertainment has evolved is the most surprising thing.
Youtube
Prime Time Reality TV
The MCU
Steaming Binges.
Entertain is both better quality and so much worse at the same time, It consumes things in a way I don't think we could have easily been predicted when we were rewinding VHS tapes or renting DVDs.

Gene based medicine, I think in the near future most genetic disorders and cancers will be as easily treated as a bacterial infection is today. Not to say there will be a 100% success rate, but a large portion of disorders being treated with 10 days of uninvasive out patient treatment seems within reach to me. Currently the biggest barrier is avoiding off target effects, and it's going to happen fast when they find a solution for that.
