We don't want to do ugly things anymore.

And we all look around for different ways of avoiding that outcome.

I don't think we yet see the killer app in the home.

So if I ask myself what do I want?

If I could have a fully functioning robot that would be like a maid or a butler, that would be useful to me.

But most things short of that don't quite seem worth it.

Do I have a Roomba?

No.

I don't know.

What if there's a mechanical vacuum cleaner that goes around on its own when I'm at work?

It just doesn't matter.

Seem that necessary.

I do my own laundry.

The welcome break sometimes.

So I think we're still waiting to see the killer app.

Any other technologies that you're excited about this year?

Well, everything in biomedical, I mean, even without AI, progress against cancer.

I think youngish people today will die of old age and maybe live to ninety seven or whenever the time is.

And that's already in the cards.
