Insights from DLD Speakers
“I believe that technology can make the world a better place – but we’ve forgotten that. In our pursuit of billions, we have forgotten our humanity. And that is a tragedy.”
“I always thought space was somewhere else – but space is part of where we live.”
“There was a social norm of having to be at the office. I think that has changed … Maybe we find a better reason than just going to the office.”
“We’ve created a system that sucks all the wealth and brings it to the door of some select people. It’s a ticking time bomb – socially, politically and economically.”
“Uncertainty is an absolutely defining quality in life, and we should stop fighting it and learn how to make it our friend.”
“Music is a universal connector. It encompasses everything that is stimulating to us.”
“Robotics is not dangerous. Robots are a tool to help us and make us more powerful.”
“We’re going to see big tech partner with universities. In ten years, a school like MIT will not welcome 3,000 students to its freshman class but 30,000.”
“Regulation should not stifle innovation – but we should be very careful not to put innovation in a higher order of significance than democracy.”
“It’s drugs and technology that look at us as ‘users’. I would say that big data is like Big Tobacco.”
