Viper Vertex interviewed on video an impressive list of invited
distinguished speakers each of whom are included in the virtual
panels of each topic area. These guests were asked some of the same
basic questions concerning innovations in technologies, how tehcnology
has affected our personal and global lives, and ethical implications
that may accompany these innovations and technologies. Extensive
research was done on the specifics for each guest so that, in addition
to the standard set of questions, she could ask specific and different
questions concerning their particular area of expertise. Questions
included, but were not limited to, thoughts on: cloning, genetic
engineering, patenting of life forms, etchical implications of these
and other new technologies, new innovations in specific areas, technological
development and general global access to new technologies, job creation
and loss, nanotechnology, cryonics, intellegent computers, cyborgs,
ubiquitous computers, limits of silicon technologie and others.
These virtual
panelists appear in the INNOVATION FORUM EXHIBIT and their thoughts
