Tech innovators see end of silicon era, rise of electric vehicles

When a group of technology experts were asked to speculate on the future of their industries last week at the University of Montana, their answers were broad and varied, from the end of the silicon age to the dominance of the electric vehicle.

The question was posed by Mansfield senior research fellow Alex Philp during a roundtable discussion hosted by Accelerate Montana. The evening covered everything from artificial intelligence to big data analytics and cyber security.
