When I step back and look at what's important to AMD, it's about graphics leadership - visual computing leadership - as well as a strong computing experience. We have the capability to integrate those two together.

Data is going to be dynamic... and, combined with the performance of computing that allows for artificial intelligence to be applied, is going to bring all kinds of insights and additives to enhance everyday life.

American Businessman

Kevin Kelly

The great advance of personal computers was not the computing power per se but the fact that it brought it right to your face, that you had control over it, that were confronted with it and could steer it.

GIS is being influenced by and integrating with all kinds of new innovations such as faster computing, big data, the cloud, smart devices, and distributed processing.

Clifford Stoll

While I admire the insights of many of the people in the world of computing, I get this cold feeling that I speak a different language.

The computing world is very good at things that we are not. It is very good at memory.

Pranav Mistry

We are looking for an era where computing will actually merge with the physical world.

Fairly cheap home computing was what changed my life.

Thomas Hardiman

American Judge

Used when discussing calculations or measurements in math, science, or daily life.

Mathematical Use

Implies using reason or logic to figure something out, not just numbers.

Logical Thinking

Suggests a precise process, not estimating or making a guess.

Not Guesswork

Used when a computer performs operations or solves problems.

Computer Specific

Refers to analyzing numerical data or statistics through computing.

Data Analysis

Can relate to the quickness of a computer executing tasks.

Processing Speed

 I've done this because I believe mobile computing is the future of personal computing, and I'm trying to make the world a little bit better by working on these things. But this was, I admit, all an accident. I really didn't want to do any of these products. Very early in my career I decided I was not going to be in the computer industry. Before that, I just have to tell you

Jeff Hawkins: How brain...

 from solving the famous traveling salesman problem, to scheduling computing tasks and optimizing Internet searches, to enabling groups of robots to search a minefield or a burning building collectively, without any central control. But you can observe these fascinatingly simple, yet effective, processes directly through some simple experiments,

 in our macroscopic world, like in quantum cryptography, so spies can send secure messages to each other, or quantum computing, for cracking secret codes. Everyday physics may start to look a bit more like the strange quantum world. Quantum teleportation may even progress so far, that one day your cat will escape to a safer galaxy,

What can Schrödinger's...

 I don't love being regulated, but I think this is an important thing for public safety. Let's come back to that. But I don't think many people have really sort of taken seriously the notion of, you know, a robot at home. I mean, at the start of the computing revolution, Bill Gates said there's going to be a computer in every home.

Elon Musk: A future...

 If space and time are continuous, then even a tiny piece of the universe has infinite points and becomes impossible to simulate with finite computing power. So a simulation would have to represent space and time in very small pieces. These would be almost incomprehensibly tiny. But we might be able to search for them

 I'd have to hack that block, plus all the preceding blocks, the entire history of commerce on that blockchain, not just on one computer but across millions of computers, simultaneously, all using the highest levels of encryption, in the light of the most powerful computing resource in the world

How the blockchain is...

 or computer or any other computing device is mathematics. It's all numbers at the bottom. Whether it's video or text or music or voice, it's all numbers, it's all, underlying it, mathematical functions happening, and Lovelace said, "Just because you're doing mathematical functions and symbols

 we wanted to make it so that sound from the world gets converted in some way so that a deaf person can understand what is being said. And we wanted to do this, given the power and ubiquity of portable computing, we wanted to make sure that this would run on cell phones and tablets,

 and more powerful computing capabilities make it easier for humans to live under the sea or in space I strongly believe that man will once again set out to colonize the new worlds of space fast in the moon tomorrow innovative projects
