It's dangerous to be people-blind.

Personally, I'm not afraid of a robot uprising. The benefits far outweigh the threats.

I absolutely believe that a lot of the issues raised in 'Amped' about technology migrating into our bodies are issues that we're really going to deal with soon.

Zombies, vampires, Frankenstein's monster, robots, Wolfman - all of this stuff was really popular in the '50s. Robots are the only one of those make-believe monsters that have become real. They are really in our lives in a meaningful way. That's pretty fascinating to me.

It's hard to guess how smart the machines are, but a good rule of thumb is that they're always smarter than you think.

Some unspoken human communication is taking place on a hidden channel. I did not realize they communicated this much without words. I note that we machines are not the only species who share information silently, wreathed in codes.

The true knowledge is not in the things, but in finding the connections between the things.
