free to pursue new options even if such options imply loss of profits for selected industries. The same is clearly true in pharmaceutical research, in the pursuit of alternatives to the internal-combustion engine, and in many other technological frontiers. I do not think that the development of new technologies should be placed in the control of old technologies; the temptation to suppress the competition is too great. If we Americans live in a free-enterprise society, let us see substantial independent enterprise in all of the technologies upon which our future may depend. If organizations devoted to technological innovation and its boundaries of acceptability are not challenging (and perhaps even offending) at least some powerful groups, they are not accomplishing their purpose.

we can get the most from the technologies when we “listen” to the direction the technologies lean, and bend our expectations, regulations, and products to these fundamental tendencies within that technology.

The democratization of technology allows anyone to be a creator, entrepreneur, scientist. The future is brighter.

We’ll use technology to produce commodities, and we’ll make

Technology is a resource-liberating mechanism. It can make the once scarce the now abundant.

Only with these three kinds of creativity - technology, product planning, and marketing - can the public receive the benefit of a new technology.

We use one stage of technology to create the next stage, which is why technology accelerates, why it grows in power.

Law and technology produce, together, a kind of regulation of creativity we've not seen before.

Can we reuse some of the technologies we use for other economic activities to recoup some of the investment already made in economies dependent on fossil fuels?

But there is no reason why technology should be limited to computers. Properly understood, any new and better way of doing things is technology.

new technology creates greater opportunities for specialization, which increases cooperation, which leads to more capability, which generates new technology and starts the whole process over again. We also see it repeated throughout evolution.

I develop sensors and technologies and look for creative solutions to problems.

Technology = Leverage Startups offer anyone a way to be in a situation with measurement and leverage. They allow measurement because they’re small, and they offer leverage because they make money by inventing new technology.

If it can be said, it can be built [using digital technology].
