Autodesk colleague Maurice Conti the Director of Strategic Innovation recently visited my special Pacific Wonderland of Portland Oregon to speak at the TEDx Portland event on “The Future of Human Augmentation.” Maurice explains how design and interaction with computational systems and AI will greatly impact all of us. Maurice is an awesome teammate as well as a very creative person that doesn’t just think out side the box, but he lights the box on fire with rocket fuel and whisky and then steps into his teleporter to visit the future.
“Welcome to the Augmented Age where your natural human capabilities will be augmented by computational systems will help you think, robotics systems that help you make,and a digital nervous system that connects you far beyond your natural senses.”
The video of Maurice’s TEDx presentation is now posted for everyone to experience and provoke thought. I heard comments from friends that attended like “I had no idea Autodesk was so cool.”
