I mean, it's just technology.

I think it's a hopeless goal.

It would have been a piece of cake for him to block and override our surveillance signal.

There's actually one going into human trial, so this is feasible technology.

These operations are technically impossible.

And the technological modernization of imperial russia.

Last year, I told you the story, in seven minutes, of Project Orion, which was this very implausible technology that technically could have worked, but it had this one year political window where it could have happened.

I think we want to engage as many people here as possible in helping us think of smart interfaces that will make all this possible.

old habits plus old technology have predictable consequences.

It's not possible, even with today's technology, it would shatter.

The idea here is for you to be able to connect anywhere.

Technical

You need talent, discipline and determination.

Technical Details

Technical reason

And it doesn't just apply to computation.

Amazon uses data to understand how to place products on their website.

This gamma technology has limitless applications.

And this kind of thing would have been impossible without a microphone.

Why is it that Nelson has access to a cutting edge technology, like the cellphone, but doesn't have access to a 100 year old technology for generating electric light in the home?

We then used an animation technique called stop motion to manipulate the cards in ways that would be otherwise physically impossible.

We are talking this week about the issues that matter most in the world.

Technical things.

In the case of design, that means balancing desirability, what humans need, with technical feasibility, and economic viability.

I want to point at something here, on the left.

But it surely is a very important moment for design, because not only is the technology proceeding, not only is computing technology making open source possible also in the world of design, but also the idea of sustainability which is not only sustainability from the viewpoint of CO2 emissions and footprint, but also sustainability of human interrelationships is very much part of the work of so many designers.

Technical Reason

that can be faked.

Such skills could be put to many practical uses.

In fact, it also shows something interesting, that although our capabilities and technology have been expanding geometrically, unfortunately, our ability to model their long term behavior, which has also been increasing, has been increasing only arithmetically.

Ray Kurzweil and all the other talks we know that the stick is going up exponentially.

Do they have technology insight, or are they market insights?

So this is what we've built.

You know, with the technologies we have today, we can save between 30 and 50 percent of the energy of a country in Europe, and we can solve half of the rest with renewables.

(Applause)

And that's exactly what the pilot did for me.

And the only thing preventing us from doing truly visionary work are these moralbased restrictions that lawmakers put up in the name of public policy.

Used to think that it was Impossible.

Because we're putting a big fat nerve onto a little piece of muscle.

This is based on the number of hosts.

Lung cancer. Inoperable.

..intelligent species reject technology that would enhance ability..

To me, that journey looks like Doug Dietz.

This is the most disruptive technology

So, ultimately what's going to determine the success or failure of SETI is the longevity of technologies, and the mean distance between technologies in the cosmos distance over space and distance over time.
