๐ Alan Kay's Historical Record & Core Quote
Official Archive"The best way to predict the future is to invent it. I believed that computers should go beyond being mere calculating machines to become personal tools for everyone to explore ideas, create, and communicate. The concepts of Smalltalk and Dynabook are the results of this vision. I dreamed of a world where users could interact with computers intuitively and express their thoughts without complex programming. Object-Oriented Programming offered a powerful methodology for modeling the complexities of the real world within a computer, and the Graphical User Interface (GUI) brought computers from the exclusive domain of experts into everyone's hands. I believe that technology should be a medium that extends human cognitive abilities and helps children learn and think in new ways. I hope that the technology we create contributes to fostering humanity's intellectual growth and building a better future."
