In the Future: Even Bigger Advances
This is amazing. Oh, wait, no it isn’t.
Bill Gates, admittedly a genius-If people started disappearing like in Atlas Shrugged, Bill might be one of the first, predicts large technological leaps in the next 10 years.
In a speech to the Northern Virginia Technology Council, Gates speculated that some of the most important advances will come in the ways people interact with computers: speech-recognition technology, tablets that will recognize handwriting and touch-screen surfaces that will integrate a wide variety of information.
I am purely annoyed that this is news. Next thing you will hear is “Political Gridlock on Capitol Hill”, “The sky is actually blue”, and “Spitzer say’s she really wasn’t worth $5,500 and hour.” The only way that we could ever stop developing new technologies is if the world turned toward communism. That is one of the many reasons to fight off socialized health care. Communism doesn’t provide incentives for innovations, and while innovations might still sporadically occur, entrepreneurs that drive the innovations and find uses for them are are severely hampered.
