Too many apps for one device (e.g., Philips Hue) • Sentient? • Hello Natural Language! • Internet of Things (IoT) will capture, track, and share data • Artificial Intelligence • Turing Test

- 22. Source: http://goo.gl/HKr5ce Robots are coming to take our jobs. We should be happy! It isn’t a race against the machines. We will lose. It is a race WITH the machines. 90% of your coworkers will be unseen machines and most of what you do will not be possible without them (e.g., discovery tools etc.). Robots will help humans discover new jobs for ourselves; new tasks that expand who we are and let us focus on BEING HUMAN. The fewer humans who touch our cars as they are being built THE BETTER. Every time you click on a search button you are telling a robot to do something that humans cannot do. The human assignment will be to keep creating jobs for robots to do. This will never be finished so we will always have 1 job!
