Much of technology over the past 50 years has been without
warmth, or as some might say, “technology” equals cold,
harsh, and uninviting. Those days thankfully are changing,
and design at HP is leading the transformation. Simply put,
design is the strategy at HP. So as we look to the future, new
experiences demand new solutions that have soul, appeal to
our passions, appeal to our senses—that are more human.

We ask ourselves, “How much smarter can we make a
machine?” The key question, from my point of view,
should be, “How much smarter can humans become with
machines?” This is my hope for the future of technology,
that we, as humans, can take the maximum advantage of
new technological advances to enhance our capabilities.
I hope that machines will free us up from all repetitive,
low-value-added tasks, so that people can spend time on
what makes us different and unique and able to delve into
our creative and empathetic sides. I hope that HP can help
write this chapter, bringing innovation and breakthroughs
that help make life better for everyone, everywhere.
