Straight,
Only for the dreamers invested in GMGC. I guess this is why we are invested in this company (Their potential, certainly not their past or current fundamentals:))

But wait! That's not all!
Already, companies such as General Magic are hard at work on so-called “agent” technology-programs designed to extend the reach of the user by monitoring and searching data while the user himself is offline or busy elsewhere. Quasi-autonomy will, long before the century is out, evolve into true machine intelligence.
And those machines will swiftly become more intelligent than even the brightest of us. Unburdened by our limitations, unsleeping, unemotional, tapped directly into the global datanet, they will be formidable competitors, if we allow them to be. How will we handle the challenge they present?
One solution may be to become more like them. In the coming decade, palmtops will be supplanted by wearable computers, smart watches, glasses and clothing. The step from there to implanted computers is a small one, and the potential rewards are significant. We, too, can be plugged directly into the Net. We can have our senses and our analytical faculties enhanced by machines that are, in a very real sense, a part of us. We can merge with our computers. |
