TRANSCENDENCE

Since the dawn of personal computers in the late-1960s to the Internet in the 90s and the explosive growth of mobile in the 2000s we have evolved to become cyborgs.

We’re humans in symbiotic relationships with data and technology And, we’re now exploring how we wear technology to help us to be more productive and connect more deeply with people.

Beyond that, we’re exploring the dimensions of data that surround us and mapping our world to share our contexts and create immersion in places we’ll never visit.

A new contextualized world where we gamify our environments and seek value in a mixed reality with humans and data merged into a new horizon We’re also investing in field of artificial intelligence with applied machine learning to tap into the subconscious patterns of our world to unlock new ways of thinking.

To reimagine what sentient beings can be.

We’re innovating and building machines at the scale of atoms and molecules to fight our cancers from the inside out with nanotechnologies.

And, we’re harnessing quantum phenomena such as superposition and entanglement to process data faster and break new ground in medicine, chemistry, cryptography and redefine what we mean by ‘computing.

And, Today I see the promise of a brighter, more empowering and equitable future for all.

And, with that promise comes incredible responsibility.

Mobile / AR / AI / QC are the foundational technologies that will allow us to unlock human potential. But, with that power comes great responsibility and we must look beyond technological transcendence towards human transcendence and an equitable future.
