Meanwhile, there will be more dependence on teleconferencing and other technologies to replace, or at least supplement, some routine travel.
He praised "the can-do spirit" of those seeking to exploit new technologies to replace the resource that had made the Persian Gulf states he visited rich.
If he is a true humanist, Dyson should be promoting energy efficiency and solar, wind and geothermal technologies to replace fossil fuels.
So if you are merely looking to use cognitive technologies to replace human labor and cut costs, you are most probably on the wrong track.
In terms of finding and developing new technologies to replace silicon, it's really not that far in the future, is it?
You're currently funding researchers who are working on a lot of different ways to slow down or even stop aging — a treatment that would work on the cellular or molecular level, regenerative technologies to replace body parts, cybernetics.
Solar thermal plants are among the most promising technologies to replace fossil fuel stationary applications, and within solar thermal technologies, parabolic troughs are considered the most mature application in the market.
It is in the interest of electric car companies and industries creating these new technologies to promote the belief that lithium is in plentiful supply and will continue to be over the next 100 years, however some these reports exaggerate resources and overestimate the abilities of rising new technologies to replace lithium components with other more abundant elements (Evans, 2009).
But at least one leading economist - Wassily W. Leontief, winner of the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Science in 1973 and director of the Institute for Economic Analysis of New York University - has been warning that this time the old fear may be warranted, with new technologies to replace not only human muscles but also human skills and minds.
Given the more than 37,000 people who die annually on U.S. roads — and the more than 1.3 million killed every year worldwide — how many deaths are acceptable in the quest to build and popularize technologies to replace flawed human drivers?
