Out of the Woods

When I hear the Kurzweil name, I always think of the wonderfully advanced voice recognition and OCR systems from the 1980s and 1990s. The company continues its cutting edge technology march, and at its helm, founder Ray Kurzweil continues his forward thinking. In this essay I found, he looks at how technology has progressed over the past century and, given its exponential growth, where it could go in just the next few decades. Fascinating and exciting stuff.
