Let Things do the Thinking
This book is aimed by the author to inform and persuade the reader about what, how, and why we need to make objects think. ... The first section gives the reader direction about what are things that think. The following section provides an explanation of why things should think. The last part is used by Gershenfeld to show what it takes and how enabling things to think will improve society. ... Gershenfeld’s book, When things Start to Think, is that we need to revolutionize our means of technology by bonding digital machines with material products to better humanity. ... The idea of paper refreshing itself from radio frequencies is entirely possible, and I think will lead to lesser use of paper and that would help the environment. ...
Gershenfeld sums up his motive for wanting things to think on page 200, “I’m much more interested in unobtrusive computing, providing solution to problems everywhere without having to attend to the computer”. ... When things start to record your daily habits, it could be used to reward the person who drives safe and penalize the unsafe driver when it comes to auto insurance.
