With Peter Diamandis. Here is a bullet point summary of our fireside chat from Next Big Future:
Steve Jurvetson is deeply interested and excited by deep learning
It is the future of all engineering
Apply anywhere you have a lot of data and make sense of it
It is the biggest advance in engineering since the scientific method
Deep learning can be used update and optimize deep learning
Spacex and Falcon Heavy
Talk about the returning the rocket stages
The big thing is the heavy use of simulation to get a lot of things to work first time
Spacex has a lot of modularity.
For the 9 rockets on the Falcon 9, two can fail and the mission can still succeed
Methane is used for the the Raptor engine
Natural gas is the cheapest right now on earth
It will good for Earth and Mars
Next year land a one way Red Dragon trip
2024 launch and 2025 land on Mars
2.9 cents per kwh for solar for some sunny countries
Nuclear regulatory problems is why they will hold back on investing in nuclear but Steve thinks we (the world- civilization) needs new nuclear
Machine learning, autonomy and robotics
Biggest customer for Rethink robotics is China.
China has 100% employee turnover.
Spacex rockets will all be robots
Planes will be robots
Planes are flown by computer now except for taxiing on the runway
All vehicles will be electric
all power will be solar
all vehicles will be autonomous
Every new product that surprises you will have deep learning in it
Dwave’s Geordie Rose has a new Quantum AI company Kindred

And Singularity Hub wrote on the observation that Engineering Will Soon Be ‘More Parenting Than Programming’
