Christopher Fahey  – the Internet is not made of robots.

If you have glasses or use a computer to do simple addition – then YOU are a cyborg!

  • 1) don’t replace humans.
  • 2) don’t try to replicate humans.

However, we can build better products by thinking of the as human.

We tend to think that our tech have human qualities anyway.

Wow – I just realized that the room (one of the larger ones) is packed. Standing room only.

The 3 qualia of human products:

  • – Sentience
  • – Intimacy
  • – Personality

Elegance is the new efficiency.
If we don’t humanize our products , our products will mechanize us.
