Droppin' Science...

when Dave Hanson was a teenager, he had a revelation: Artificial Intelligence will save the world! and whether he knew it or not, he's been on a mission ever since! i had the pleasure to meet Dave this weekend, and was invited to work with him creating a comic book version of the future he envisions. i'll post more about that when i can (i signed so many non-disclosure papers yesterday, it wasn't even funny...), but i thought i'd say a bit about Dave and his creations now.

Dave's company Hanson Robotics (formerly Human Emulating Robitics), creates "next Generation robots" that can recognise and react to not only human speech, but facial expressions as well. and if you've never seen a robot that looked and emoted like a human being, just check out Einstein!
David is one of those people who truly loves and believes in what he does. and it's been good to the accomplished (featured in Wired magazine, formerly employed by Disney) young Phd student/entrepeneur, who's currently planning a media blitz that has to be seen to be believed...
check out Dave's company website, and i'll get back to you with more later.
holla!
samax.
