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.

There are considerable advantages to using many degrees of freedom to store information, stability and controllability being perhaps the most important.

If you wanted to build the most powerful computer you could, you can't do better than including everything in the universe that's potentially available.

At some point, Moore's law will break down.

I think when I graduated from my high school in '84, they were just bringing computers in. I don't even know if they were for classes. They might have just been for the administration. It was nowhere on the radar for anybody that I know.

Computers can't find the unexpected, but people can when they eyeball the data.

When people think about computer science, they imagine people with pocket protectors and thick glasses who code all night.

I was a nerd, growing up, I was really into computers and technology, and most of my friends were basically in that world as well.

Computers have virtually replaced tape recorders.
