It's going to be interesting to see how society deals with artificial intelligence, but it will definitely be cool.

The idea that a robot will become more aware of its environment, that telling it to 'go to the kitchen' means something - navigation and understanding of the environment is a robot problem. Those are the technological frontiers of the robotics industry.

There are so many opportunities to make a bad decision in building a robot company on top of all the normal ways that entrepreneurs screw up that it is incredibly difficult to truly create value because it is so cost-sensitive.

So my dyslexia has got me into trouble, but I feel I can talk about it because I want to say to everyone who is dyslexic that the technology exists to help. The most important thing was being diagnosed.
