Wozniak's View on Technology "We’re Just at the Start"

I found the above article while researching Steve Wozniak, whose journey to where he is now is a story that really intrigued me after watching his discussion.  I thought it would be interesting to get Wozniak's perspective on different, more current topics surrounding the technology industry.  I couldn’t help but laugh at Wozniak's comment about cloud computing. He argues that the biggest factor holding back the development of the cloud is the reluctance of users who are afraid of putting out confidential information, fearing they will lose control of it.  In my current job, fear and reluctance definitely play a large role in the apprehension that surrounds cloud computing.  Still, Wozniak maintains that the cloud will continue to evolve and allow more effective organization, better use of resources and faster, stronger collaboration. 

Wozniak also makes a great, yet unsettling point with regards to the future of computers.  He simply states that every time we make computers better and more capable, we are making humans less and less  important.  He adds: "We didn't set out to make computers more important than people, but we did it. You can much more easily lay off people today, but you would never cut the means of production," Wozniak said, by trimming your company's computer resources."  Wozniak's assertion will become more and more of a reality as technology continues to surpass itself.
