9 statements about Computing, every show
Garry Tan: Next computing form factor will clearly be voice and memory
“I think in the short term it'll probably keep looking like the way it is, but it seems inconceivable that it'll stay that form factor. Like, it's pretty clearly going to be voice. I think there's a lot around memory.”
Smartphones isolate users instead of connecting them in the real world
“And I think phones have continued that trend of pulling people into the screen rather than bringing people into the world, helping people share experiences together with their friends.”
Rao: Computing is currently constrained by energy at a global level
“We're at a point in time where computing is, is, is bound by energy at the global level, which just was never true in all of humanity.”
Devins: The future of computing is not bigger or more screens
“I don't think the future of computing is having five screens. And the reason that most people don't have five screens isn't because they're expensive and they don't have room. I don't want to work on a spreadsheet that has and see 200 rows and columns at once.…”
Hoffman: Early computing revolution deeply parallels today's AI revolution
“There are deep parallels between the huge advances in computing underway at this point in Ed's story and the seismic impacts of the current AI revolution. Like AI, the computational wave that Ed was immersing himself in was going to inform sweeping changes in …”
McCullough: Generative AI will become an everyday conversational reality within five years
“I think that we're underestimating the ability of the true promise of computing to be manifest within our lives, normal people's lives within less than five years.”
Lubbershane: Compute grew 10x over a decade while power consumption rose 10%
“Computing, demand for computing has grown, as everyone knows, it's obvious, tremendously in the past 10 years. I think it's grown by about 10 X over that period. But over that same period, data center energy consumption Grew by just about 10%, which is actuall…”
Luckey: Blended virtual reality is likely computing's final form before telepathy
“I believed in this idea of a digital parallel world that exists alongside our own, blending the real and the virtual seamlessly through your daily life as something that is if not inevitable, at least very, very likely to be the last form of computing, aside f…”
