AI Better by Design In this photo are three structural nodes, intended to hold cables above a road in The Hague.
1. Designed by a human.
2. The far right by a computer.
3. The node on the far right supports the same weight, but weighs 75% less and is 50% smaller.

Where do the experiments in innovation lead us?
Are we alone?
How do we protect Mother Earth?
How do we divert an asteroid?
Can we find Earth 2.0?
Is/was there life on Mars?
What are the BIG questions?
How did the Universe form and where is it going?

In our experience, progress comes from
1. Identify compelling value.
2. Bring together non traditional collaborators.
3. Automation first.
4. Do not let the complex get in the way of the simple and effective.
5. Build a powerful collaborating team and group of leaders.
6. Implement the opportunity efficiently.
7. Promote and celebrate the successes.
8. Remember you can do it.
What do you remember from 2007-2008?
• Bank closures and bail outs
• Investment firms bail outs
• Housing foreclosures
• Stock market nose dive
• Recession
• …

This also happened in 2007 *iPhone was released by AppleCloud computing was begun by Amazonfacebook went beyond college campusGitHub beganKindle was released by Amazon Twitter went globalAndroid was released by GoogleAirbnb was foundedYouTube was bought by GoogleWatson was begun by IBM
* From Tom Friedman’s book “Thank You For Being Late”
Hadoop was releasedSoftware-enabled networking was launched by AT&T (for the iPhone)Michael Dell returned to DellPalantir launched big dataNon-silicon materials in microchips by Intel (“saved” Moore’s law)
Internet crossed 1B usersChange.org was releasedDNA sequencing had a break-throughClean energy movement took offFracking began
What happened afterwards? (Key Trends)
Some key trends• Exponential curves (compute, storage, networking)• Everything is digitized (60% YOY data growth)• Everything is connected (IoT)• Everyone participates (Open Source, Social networking)• Everything can be done on a smartphone• Everyone get a digital assistant (Siri, Alexa, Google, Cortana)
• Next: everyone gains Intelligent Assistance (IA)• Next: learn faster, be agile, grow smarter… all the time• Next: put an “expire by” date on everything• Next: transform workplace & workforce of the future

The companies on the prior page went from $1T to $3T Market Cap in 2017.
In 10 years, what will we remember about 2017?
How can we warp-enable innovation together?
Come and brainstorm with us
