The creator of artificial intelligence Sam Altman has envisioned the future of computing. He says the future generation of technologies would know users and their environments closely. The CEO of OpenAI has underlined that computers will become more than a machine to execute commands.

Highlights:

• Altman predicts computers will become deeply personalized tools anticipating individual needs.
• Future devices will possess advanced context-aware computing capabilities.
• Interaction will shift to natural, conversational interfaces.
• AI will act as a proactive assistant managing tasks and information.
• Systems will continuously interpret user location, activity, and goals.

Altman spoke of the future as the one in which context-aware computing is necessary. The requests will be processed by devices and they will constantly interpret information on where a user is, what they do, preferences and inferred goals. This involves elaborate use of artificial intelligence to attain high levels of understanding of context.

Such change drastically alters the way people interact with machines. The users will have fluid discourse with no menu navigation. The AI will learn to understand contextually and anticipate needs and perform tasks. This is a step towards effective cognitive collaboration, which is facilitated by context-aware computing.

To attain effective context-based computing, remarkable advancement is needed. There needs to be progress in self-reasoning AI and privacy-acting data management and multi-device compatibility. Belief in systems knowledge of individual circumstances is also one means of adopting this knowledge-aware computing paradigm.
