Well, claimed they weren't smart, just that if they were intelligent
they would working on Holographics, rather than convenience stores,
they would be working on XML, Desktop Publishing, and Atomic Clock
Wristwatches,
rather than IRAs. They would be on working Cyber Batteries, laser
disks, digital books,
microcomputers, distributed processing software, CD+rw, DVD-rom,
mp3 ,mpeg, and pgp,
rather than 1960 A/D Circuits. They would be working on GPS and
Digital Terrain Mapping,
rather than Gas Station Sign Posts. They would be working on HDTV
and
Self-Replicating Machines rather than TV Towers. They would be
working on
Home Broadband. Hybrid-Electric Energy, and Data Fusion, rather than
Hedge Funds.
