A molecular manufacturing technology will let us build molecular surgical tools and those tools will for the first time let us directly address the problems at the very root level.

Part of the problem is when we bring in a new technology we expect it to be perfect in a way that we don't expect the world that we're familiar with to be perfect.

These days the technology can solve our problems and then some. Solutions may not only erase physical or mental deficits but leave patients better off than "able-bodied" folks. The person who has a disability today may have a superability tomorrow.

In the earliest days this was a project I worked on with great passion because I wanted to solve the Defense Department's problem: it did not want proprietary networking and it didn't want to be confined to a single network technology.

If we invest in researching and developing energy technology we'll do some real good in the long run rather than just making ourselves feel good today. But climate change is not the only challenge of the 21st century and for many other global problems we have low-cost durable solutions.

If your goal is anything but profitability - if it's to be big or to grow fast or to become a technology leader - you'll hit problems.

Technology causes problems as well as solves problems. Nobody has figured out a way to ensure that as of tomorrow technology won't create problems. Technology simply means increased power which is why we have the global problems we face today.

I'm a futurist. Technology is our way out of almost every problem we have. Technology can create a new sense of community.

If you think technology can solve your security problems then you don't understand the problems and you don't understand the technology.

I don't hate technology I don't hate hackers because that's just what comes with it without those hackers we wouldn't solve the problems we need to solve especially security.

If you wanna know how not secure you are just take a look around. Nothing's secure. Nothing's safe. I don't hate technology I don't hate hackers because that's just what comes with it without those hackers we wouldn't solve the problems we need to solve especially security.

Technology will definitely solve all our problems but in the process it will create brand new ones. But that's O.K. because the most you can expect from life is to get to solve better and better problems.

There's nothing wrong with technology. It's when technology is the story and not the artist that's the problem.

The most important and urgent problems of the technology of today are no longer the satisfactions of the primary needs or of archetypal wishes but the reparation of the evils and damages by the technology of yesterday.

The real problem is not whether machines think but whether men do.

The newest computer can merely compound at speed the oldest problem in the relations between human beings and in the end the communicator will be confronted with the old problem of what to say and how to say it.

As a teacher at Princeton I'm surrounded by people who work hard so I just make good use of my time. And I don't really think of it as work - writing a novel in one sense is a problem-solving exercise.
