Interview With Steve Wozniak at Boston Robotics Competition

[from212]

Woz doesn't seem like such an asshole like Steve Jobs.

[darthirakli]

When will there be an iRobot?

[outrider52]

I have a question - when does a machine become a robot? Am I right that all of these are remote-controlled? To me a remote-controlled machine is not a robot. I obviously know nothing about robotics, but to me a robot has to be able to do things on its own.

[asams96]

IMO i consider a robot a robot when it is autonomous

[zapper922]

you might not see it in this video, but as i am in robotics, i can tell you that at the beginning of every match there is a certain amount of time were the people are not aloud to touch the controls so the robot has to be programed to function on its own, which inst easy so unfortunately not all that many teams do very readily. although some are very well done and are able to do quite a bit without human control

[circuscommando]

haha, our school competed in this! were were number 2523.

[circuscommando]

oh wait, nevermind, we only made it to Connecticut.

[avatarelite]

Woz is a genius :)

[atw42]

[pcsbyte]

I'm Here

[Proninja121]

hey this is cool and is mattverso a certain Matt Vines? becuz if u r then it is me Emily from our calss @ school in robotics XDD

[darkjediken323]

Woz rules.

[ricardokuster]

he has a great mind!

[onetreehill535]

I WAS THERE!!!!!!!

[gr8bluesgtr]

Great interview and great insights from a true pioneer. Great to see someone taking a very non-traditional route with their wealth and status.

[mattverso]

He says he wishes Microsoft built better computers... But Microsoft don't actually build computers.

[ShadowWolfStudios]

That is the point. According to the Jobs and Woz in order to build a great and computer (or any device) you must design the software and the hardware so that they work together perfectly.

[mattverso]

That is the point alright. Which is why Microsoft will always, always suck, unless they start building hardware.

[danwat1234]

Huh? The x86 architecture is awesome. Its an open system, many OSes can run on it. Does Linux, os/2, or Freebsd suck? No! (matter of opinion) Why don't they need to be building new computer architectures, in order to not suck? because they don't have to. By They , I mean the companies / people that developed the other Oses besides Microsoft.

[sonofthebeach181]

*Microsoft doesn't actually build computers

[eeblee1987part2]

I love the Woz!

[JustRobots]

Very cool video ,,,Steve is my Hero ,,,,Octopus
