Woz continues to impress everyone with his astounding statements....
from:
"the stock needed to go down and re-adjust itself....."
and
"All the best people in life seem to like LINUX".
and
"I thought Microsoft did a lot of things that were good and right building parts of the browser into the operating system. Then I thought it out and came up with reasons why it was a monopoly."
to
"I'd be willing to go back to Apple if I was asked" ...like THAT's ever going to happen after saying on Monday:
HIS LATEST BUFFOONERY?
"Humans will be one day be pets for robot..."

Apparently he's been falling off the Segway quite a bit lately, and has not been wearing a helmet.

What about any context to all of that?
Regarding a return to Apple, I don't know what he'd really do for them anyway. His interests and their's likely don't mesh. He's always been far less "corporate" and more independently-minded, no?

Palin/Woz 2012.

He's been out of his element since Apple went into mass-production on the Apple II.
He otherwise is in need of medication that will restore the neurotransmitter responsible for
"inhibiting behavior" - because his prophecies are definitely not worthy of a TED conference.

According to Ray Kurzweil the singularity is just around the corner, under 20 years. He has a good record making accurate predictions. Even if he is wrong I think machines will be smarter than humans in 100 years at the latest. It is only a matter of time. It is just hard to grasp and hard to believe because people are more comfortable thinking linearly rather than exponentially.
As opposed to the buffoonery here... - RAMd®d - 06-08-2011
...that impresses no one.
There are a ton of public figures/celebrities that say crazier things.
Woz is relatively harmless. I'd worry more about tele evangelists and the like.

Totally harmless.

At least he hasn't plastered NYC with Doomsday posters promoting that idiot Camping.

probably does less damage falling off a Segway than crashing Beechcrafts.
