Computing is becoming universal.

When we have all data online it will be great for humanity. It is a prerequisite to solving many problems that humankind faces.

Computers themselves, and software yet to be developed, will revolutionize the way we learn.

Call me an optimist, but in the past 300 years we have built amazing technologies which - by and large - have advanced humanity.

What's happened with society is that we have created these devices, computers, which already can register and process huge amounts of information, which is a significant fraction of the amount of information that human beings themselves, as a species, can process.

We are living, we have long been told, in the Information Age. Yet now we are faced with the sickening suspicion that technology has run ahead of us.

More and more major businesses and industries are being run on software and delivered as online services - from movies to agriculture to national defense.

Technologies that exist between man and nature in a simple form and those that enable the interaction with other technologies are becoming significantly more complex and create their own information systems.

It has become appallingly obvious that our technology has exceeded our humanity.

Over the last few years, the world has become a smaller and more integrated place with technology that is leveling the playing field like never before.
