Physics of the Future

"Energy is vital to our daily lives. It helps us produce food, fuel transport and power communication channels across the world. Over the coming decades, more people will gain access to energy and enjoy higher standards of living. But these developments could place greater pressure on our world's resources, such as energy, fresh water and food. At the same time, climate change remains a serious concern. At Shell, we use human ingenuity, innovation and technology to unlock the energy our customers need to power their lives in the years ahead, while aiming to limit our impact on the environment."

"The Future of Wind Energy Wind energy is a clean, renewable way of producing electricity. If costs are brought down, its future looks assured as a complement to other electrical production technologies such as fossil fuels, nuclear energy, and solar energy. Much of its future development will undoubtedly be offshore."

very knowledgeable in the on the future energy resources.

NAO ROBOT

nano paint is a crazy thing to thing about. you will literally be able to change the color of your car with the press of a button.

This vision of the future makes key points in the future of nuclear fusion

"e intellectual roots of AI, and the concept of intelligent machines, may be found in Greek mythology. Intelligent artifacts appear in literature since then, with real (and fraudulent) mechanical devices actually demonstrated to behave with some degree of intelligence. Some of these conceptual achievements are listed below under "Ancient History.""

"When X-rays interact with matter, they do one of three things: Pass through the object Get absorbed by the object Scatter from the object"

The history of AI as written by Think Quest

"Evidence of Artificial Intelligence folklore can be traced back to ancient Egypt, but with the development of the electronic computer in 1941, the technology finally became available to create machine intelligence. "

"The seeds of modern AI were planted by classical philosophers who attempted to describe the process of human thinking as the mechanical manipulation of symbols. This work culminated in the invention of the programmable digital computer in the 1940s, a machine based on the abstract essence of mathematical reasoning. This device and the ideas behind it inspired a handful of scientists to begin seriously discussing the possibility of building an electronic brain. "

"Because of the increasing number of scientists who study the nervous system, several prominent neuroscience organizations have been formed to provide a forum to all neuroscientists and educators."

"Earnings calls are usually meant to do little more than reassure investors - but in Facebook's most recent call, the day before Halloween, Mark Zuckerberg unveiled something unexpected. Facebook had formed an Artificial Intelligence group, Zuckerberg announced, and the company was acquiring a machine-translation company and hiring the best academic minds in the field. The goal, he told investors, was "to do world-class artificial intelligence research using all of the knowledge that people have shared on Facebook." He teased new products that would be more natural to interact with, and could solve problems beyond the reach of current technology. For anyone on the call, the point was clear: the future of Facebook would be powered by AI."

"elepresence refers to a set of technologies which allow a person to feel as if they were present, to give the appearance of being present, or to have an effect, via telerobotics, at a place other than their true location."

"The growing power of computer vision is a crucial first step for the next generation of computing, robotic and artificial intelligence systems."

"We're going to see artificial intelligence do more and more, and as this happens costs will go down, outcomes will improve, and our lives will get better. Soon countless pieces of AI will be working on our behalf, often in the background. They'll help us in areas ranging from trivial to substantive to life changing. Trivial uses of AI include recognizing our friends' faces in photos and recommending products. More substantive ones include automatically driving cars on the road, guiding robots in warehouses, and better matching jobs and job seekers. But these remarkable advances pale against the life-changing potential of artificial intelligence."

"The device feels just like scanning a real patient, so is intuitive and familiar to the user, allowing them to fully concentrate on the data."
