PABLOS HOLMAN is a hacker turned inventor. His wild career implementing science fiction, from cryptocurrency in the 1990s to AI for stock market trading to building spaceships at Blue Origin for Jeff Bezos, is like no other. Pablos helped start the Intellectual Ventures Lab for Nathan Myhrvold where his team was awarded 6,000 patents on their own inventions including a machine to suppress hurricanes, a nuclear reactor powered by nuclear waste, and a laser that can shoot mosquitoes out of the sky--part of an impact invention effort to eradicate malaria with Bill Gates. A sought-after speaker and thought leader, Pablos is one of the most trusted technologists in the world. In some of the most popular TED Talks of all time, he ranges from how to steal passwords, hack smartphones, and pick locks live on stage to hacking the future with inventions to help solve the biggest problems in the world.

Currently based on Earth, Pablos leads Deep Future, an Invention Capital firm that backs the kind of mad scientists, rogue inventors, and maverick entrepreneurs who are crazy enough to try building a better future.

General Electric? Deep Future is about giving you the mindset, the tools and the reasons for creating technology that matters.
