The drone that soars just outside is piloted by a flick of Bart’s wrist (see the “guidance sleeve). Today, as guest of Bill Kraut, I joined the National Association of Corporate Directors NJ chapter meeting at Nokia Bell Labs where we got a tantalizing forecast for the future of A.I. from the from a panel of the top innovators in the field. All this followed by an even more fun (if unsettling) trip into the future lab for a sweet taste of drones and robots and all the toys that are already reshaping our lives…. best line of the evening: No matter what we create, there is a vast inseparable difference between intelligence and unique, raw human thinking. – JT Kostman
