The Beginning
A journey of a thousand miles starts with a single step.
Every generation seems to have a dream of machines that will serve mankind. We are continually promised in media and society that this dream will be reached sooner rather than later, but it seems like we are no closer today than we were when the dream first began.
We have had the promise of personal assistants such as HAL from 2001, A Space Odessy, or the computer system in Star Trek, The Next Generation; or even personal service robots such as Rosie from the Jetsons. But why don't we have them today? I believe that the technology is possible, and have founded the company, Assistive Intelligence Inc. to work on such technologies.
My journey... is to solve some of the hardest problems of personal assistive technologies.
This blog will serve as a social commentary on the technological innovations of our time, particularly those innovations that impact personal assistant technologies such as HAL or Rosie.

As your work both frightens and interests me, I am very excited to follow your work, and your musings over the next few years.
As an insightful woman said the other day over dinner, I am glad that it is you doing what you are doing, as you have a good head on your shoulders and a strong conscience. And if you get out of line I will always be here to bring you back.
I don't know if I would want a personal robot like Rosie in the Jetsons, but it does seem interesting to think that could be possible at some point !
