Cameron:
“Machine interface is what’s going to be important. If your electric car is going to be communicating with the grid during off-peak hours, then you increase the efficiency.”
Chopra:
“We are witnessing this mobile broadband revolution. The president has been clear: We need a long-term IT ecosystem that will support this growth.”
Stone:
“What we want is for Twitter to be available in as many languages as possible, so this free and open exchange of information can take place.”
Cameron: ‘Avatar is also the most pirated film in history. The studio knows this stuff.’ Stone:
“You scan for [pirate] eye-patches. It’s easy.”

Cameron has founded “a startup around the potential of 3D. I believe passionately in it. We built the camera systems and train people how to use them, and we want a branding that ensures a 3D experience.”

Chopra was vague on the topic of developing a policy for net neutrality: “It’s proceeding. A lot of folks are contributing to that process. They’re pacing the work as they do.”
Chopra:
“If we can create the conditions, then I think the private sector will deliver amazing innovations.”
Stone:
“Allowing people to communicate has a positive impact. You have more of a sense of yourself as a global citizen.”
Cameron:
“The way we take in our media is all through screens today, whether it’s laptop screens or small screens. With the rising curve in mobility, it’s all about the screens.”

Stone joked: “We’re going to be announcing 3D tweets next week. Text blocks come to you.”

Chopra discussed his goal of using technology to improve health care: “Every American should be entitled to an electronic copy of their medical data within 48 hours of requesting it.”
Chopra: ‘We do have a strong commitment to [intellectual property] protection.’ Stone:
“It’s very efficient.” Audience laughter.
