The benefit of putting your predictions 15-30 years in the future is that people forget them by the time the deadline comes around and you can pivot more easily and also claim credit for the few successful predictions while all your failures are forgotten. The AI: 2027 could learn from Kurzweils' example, except apparently you can just keep claiming credit for being right even when your wrong prediction is only a few years old!
