Innovation accelerates and compounds.
Innovation is moving at a scarily fast pace.
I just think that we're living in a world where the technology is advancing so rapidly. You're having cameras that are capable of more and more - the resolution on cameras is jumping up.
The biggest fear that I see is that we will be left behind. We are a very slow industry; for us to make a decision takes forever. Take Tesla: Elon moves at the speed of a rocket.
The pace of discovery is going unbelievably fast.
It is difficult to predict technology more than 10 years out with any certitude, but what I observe is that change and innovation happens earlier and faster than we expect. We are constantly surprised at what technology can do.
He who makes the quickest, coolest prototypes reigns!
We don't have a traditional strategy process, planning process like you'd find in traditional technical companies. It allows Google to innovate very, very quickly, which I think is a real strength of the company.
Revolutionary products don't fail because they are shipped too early. They fail because they aren't revised fast enough.
At least before my hip replacement, I had a quick first step. I could get by you off the dribble. My business game is the same way. I can turn an idea into a business before you know it's going to be important. My first step will blow by you.
Another symptom of progress toward the Singularity: ideas themselves should spread ever faster, and even the most radical will quickly become commonplace.
Technology evolves faster than people do, faster than biology does.
The rate of change is not going to slow down anytime soon. If anything, competition in most industries will probably speed up even more in the next few decades.
The job of a theoretical physicist is to make mistakes as fast as possible .
Changes that used to take place in 50 years now happen in a handful of years . . . or even months. And how we deal with that changing technology explains almost everything.
Computers get better faster than anything else ever.
New technology is useful, but it's inefficient and ugly; it knows it'll be obsolete by lunchtime tomorrow, so it has no incentive to be anything else.
I used to tell jokes about Internet-enabled lightbulbs. I can't tell jokes about it anymore - there already is an Internet-connected lightbulb.
It's easy to move fast or be obsessed with quality, but the trick is you have to do both at a startup.
You need to have a culture where people have very high quality standards in everything the company does, but still move quickly.
That's the one drawback of trying to keep up with technology, is that it changes quicker than films can come out.
Today, technology is moving faster than the research establishment.
Look at how fast technology is developing.
There are only two sources of competitive advantage: the ability to learn more about our customers faster than the competition and the ability to turn that learning into action faster than the competition.
People who say they don't see the acceleration of innovation is a wilful blindness. We are innovation at a wonderful speed for the basic things we think everyone should get.
