SXSWi Dispatch: Extropians

Posted at 7:46 AM on March 10, 2008 by Jon Gordon

At the 2008 SXSWi conference, Lee Shupp of consulting firm Cheskin participated in a panel of the future of interface design. After the panel, I asked him about the frontiers of interaction between humans and machines. His answer: extropians.

According to Wikipedia,

Extropians believe that advances in science and technology will some day let people live indefinitely and further that humans alive today have a good chance of seeing that day.
