Tony Fadell doesn’t fit the Silicon Valley mold. His parents were neither engineers nor scientists.
Tony Fadell, an inventor of Apple’s iPod and iPhone, joined John Markoff on the CHM Live stage as part of the Exponential Center’s iPhone 360 Project. In the candid conversation, Fadell shared childhood memories, his first computer experience, his journey to Silicon Valley, and his thoughts on how the products he’s created have impacted society.

Beyond 1984
What I know best about operating my computer is how to type. Still, I dare write about technology because I suspect others will want a heads-up about coming changes in their lives. What would you say, for example, if I announced homo sapiens are approaching a transhuman condition? I‘m not t...
It’s really difficult to be leaving now. I just watched my chosen profession deliver the goods on the guy who is about to become president. And then have at least some of the American people say, ‘Rope. Noose. Journalist.’ So on second thought, maybe it’s a good time to be stepping away. I want to end by reading something Bertolt Brecht wrote that I stumbled across in my twenties: 'Nowadays, anyone who wishes to combat lies and ignorance and to write the truth must overcome at least five difficulties. He must have the courage to write the truth when truth is everywhere opposed; the keenness to recognize it, although it is everywhere concealed; the skill to manipulate it as a weapon; the judgement to select in whose hands it will be effective, and the cunning to spread the truth among such persons.’ I still believe that.
Last weekend the New York Times feted its star tech reporter John Markoff with a farewell event at the UC Berkeley Journalism School. Here are Markoff’s remarks, slightly edited.
John Markoff on the criminal implications and possiblities in artificial intelligence:
Imagine receiving a phone call from your aging mother seeking your help because she has forgotten her banking password.
Except it’s not your mother. The voice on the other end of the phone call just sounds deceptively like her.
It is actually a computer-synthesized voice, a tour-de-force of artificial intelligence technology that has been crafted to make it possible for someone to masquerade via the telephone.
Such a situation is still science fiction — but just barely. It is also the future of crime.
