In his most recent book, Redmond describes himself as a Forrest Gump-like figure in technology.Nike recently named the six-year company veteran Eric Redmond to oversee its new Metaverse Studio, which is one part of the sportswear giant's sweeping effort to establish a foothold in the immersive new digital reality.
In the book, Redmond described himself as"like Forrest Gump" when it comes to technology because of his"front-row seat to several revolutions," including quantum computing, big data, and artificial intelligence. In the book, Redmond described buying an Oculus Quest headset from Best Buy at the outset of the coronavirus pandemic, downloading some CAD software, purchasing a 3D printer from Amazon, connecting the two with the help of a YouTube video, finding some open-source designs, and making an emergency ventilator.
"Deep Tech" is divided into chapters on artificial intelligence, extended reality, blockchain, and other topics, essentially laying out an overview of the biggest new technologies.
