What will computers be like? |
Computers will change; They will have voice recognition, fuzzy query input systems; Everything will be run by AI |
They will become smaller, as piece of furniture, or a household appliance; May be they will take control over our lives |
Shopping, work, etc. will be done over computer |
How will we communicate with computers? |
By voice input for most applications bigger role ofVR |
Everything will be done via voice recognition |
By voice-recognition, or perhaps neural-stimulus; Common interface will support for all languages |
Are we going to spend our whole time in Cyberspace? |
It depends upon the development of nanotechnology; Possibility to scan the entire brain into a computer, and make it operate there |
People will use the net more; Will watch TV less |
Computers won’t substitute people |
Will computers be intelligent?
|
They won’t resemble human intelligence |
Computers will be more intelligent than humans in specific areas |
Computers will become Thinkers by 2020 but they will not be intelligent until 2050 |
