Human Is The Next Big Thing

One of my favorite movies of 2016 was Hidden Figures. The main character, Katherine Johnson, and her team of colleagues had an interesting job title: Computer. Here's what Katherine said about her job: "On any given day, I analyze the binomial levels of air displacement, friction, and velocity. And compute over 10 thousand calculations by cosine, square root, and lately analytic geometry. It was amazing work, but work that took hours to complete – and something an in-memory computer could do in a fraction of a second today.
