<li><a title="steve gillmor profile" href="/view/person?id=224" target="_blank">Steve Gillmor</a>&nbsp;Siri story</li>
<li>] tried dictation to iphone - couldnt figure it out - so I asked siri</li>
<li>] talking to your machines</li>
<li>] tori test -&nbsp;</li>
<li>] but you have to be smart enough to know how to talk to machine</li>
<li><a href="/view/person?id=203" target="_blank">Robert Scoble</a>&nbsp;] sri - bank system you just talk to,&nbsp;</li>
<li><a title="steve gillmor profile" href="/view/person?id=224" target="_blank">Steve Gillmor</a>&nbsp;</li>
<li>] need script - you need to know what you want to say before you start talking, so machine doesnt stop</li>
<li>] can use recorder - and pause and then string together&nbsp;</li>
<li>]&nbsp;</li>
<li>] if machine can learn from the interactions</li>
<li>] ex shazam always on - these things are rapidly maturing</li>
<li>] fitbit example , always on, then i started to rely on it</li>
</ol>
<li>[58:00]</li>
<ol>
<li><a href="/view/person?id=227" target="_blank">John Taschek</a></li>
<li>] come back in a year and listen to this conversation it will seem pretty fundamental and rudimentary</li>
<li>] some android phones(motox,nexus) are "always on"</li>
<li>] google now is learning - can be predictive&nbsp;</li>
<ol>
<li>ex if it knows you have a calendar appt in 2 hours and you are driving it can tell(remind/alert) you when to leave</li>

<li><a href="/view/person?id=225" target="_blank">Dan Farber</a>&nbsp;-&nbsp;anything is possible, we might not live long enough to see it, studies being done to determine if our origins are digital, &nbsp;</li>
<li><a href="/view/person?id=226" target="_blank">Danny Sullivan</a>&nbsp;-&nbsp;</li>
<li>] google now &nbsp;- example - was picking up his mom at the airport, got on the computer to check flight status before leaving BUT when he actually left the house, he got a phone alert that mom's flight was delayed when heading to the airport to pick her up, he didnt have to do anyting to get it</li>
<li>] previously "search agents" were thought to be a thing, ex company "autonomy" promoted them,&nbsp;</li>
<li>] BUT "what we need to know", changes</li>
<li>] having 'search agents' doesn't help with non predictable things - doesnt know that I need to my fix broken water heater ....</li>
<li>] we dont need more information&nbsp;</li>
<li>] "now" is doing a good job at NOT overwhelming you with info, giving you the info that you need, when you need it, 1 of the keys to success will be not overwhelming you,&nbsp;</li>
<li>] why rss readers got killed, the "i cant keep up" syndrome</li>
<li>] because our Q's are continually getting bigger, too big</li>
<li>] REASON why snapchat or twitter is so successfull,&nbsp;</li>
<li>] its there and then its gone -&nbsp;</li>
<li>] don't have to maintain it, if i didnt catch it the first time by, well maybe ill catch it another time or place</li>
