James Heywood Quotes

Look at how fast technology is developing.

Computers get better faster than anything else ever.

The thing that's changed the most has just been the rapid technology.

In fact, technology has been the story of human progress from as long back as we know. In 100 years people will look back on now and say, 'That was the Internet Age.' And computers will be seen as a mere ingredient to the Internet Age.

The great growling engine of change - technology.

When the Constitution was written, the founders had no way of anticipating the new technologies that would evolve in the coming centuries.

The pace of technological change in recent years has been both impressive and positive for consumers.

We are now living in a fast paced technological era where every skill that we teach our children becomes obsolete in the 10 to 15 years due to exponentially growing technological advances.

Writing genetic code like we do software will usher in a completely new way of living for all of us. When this happens, our society will be as fundamentally changed as we have seen from the invention of computers.

The future of the world is in the palm of the tech community.

Weird how fast technology changes.

Technology is growing in all possible ways. It is affecting our lifestyle also.

Technological change is both familiar and easy to observe.

We are in an electronic technology age now and it's about time we put away the old stuff.

The modern computer hovers between the obsolescent and the nonexistent.

Nanotechnology has been moving a little faster than I expected, virtual reality a little slower.

How will the approach of the Singularity spread across the human world view?

I don't think love for technology itself breeds change.

I don't think that a Singularity would be visible to those going through one. Even the most disruptive changes are not universally or immediately distributed, and late followers learn from the reactions and dilemmas of those who had initially encountered the disruptive change.

In the entire history of the human species, every tool we've invented has been to expand muscle power. All except one. The integrated circuit, the computer. That lets us use our brain power.

It would appear that we have reached the limits of what it is possible to achieve with computer technology, although one should be careful with such statements, as they tend to sound pretty silly in 5 years.

I have argued above that we cannot prevent the Singularity, that its coming is an inevitable consequence of the humans' natural competitiveness and the possibilities inherent in technology.

But if the technological Singularity can happen, it will.

I'm not afraid of computers taking over the world.

As the Industrial Age is drawing to a close, I think that we're witnessing the dawn of the era of biological design.
