The ideas that really interest us are mostly too far out to merit investment
at this point. However, the development paths that lead to them are another
matter. For example, my work is in advancing the state of the art in
automated coding tools, which is a development path that ultimately will
enable us to actually program all those neat toys the nanotech guys want to
build (not to mention making large-scale AI projects a lot more practical).
