AI generated web expert profile of the day: Tim Berners-Lee
This is a “just for fun” series in which I’m asking OpenAI’s ChatGPT for 10 quotes from famous web experts. The content of the quotes may be wrong - in fact, assume they are entirely bogus (if you reshare include a similar notice). What’s real is respect and love for everyone of these experts. Thank you for your work in web design and development.
Sir Tim Berners-Lee, the inventor of the World Wide Web, has shared numerous insights on the web, technology, and its impact on society. Here are ten great quotes attributed to him:
"The web does not just connect machines, it connects people."
"The power of the Web is in its universality. Access by everyone regardless of disability is an essential aspect."
"We need diversity of thought in the world to face the new challenges."
"Information is power. But like all power, there are those who want to keep it for themselves."
"The Web as I envisaged it, we have not seen it yet. The future is still so much bigger than the past."
"I hope we will use the Net to cross barriers and connect cultures.”
"Data is a precious thing and will last longer than the systems themselves."
"The original idea of the web was that it should be a collaborative space where you can communicate through sharing information."
"We can't blame the technology when we make mistakes."
"If you can't control your own data, you don't have any privacy. You can't protect your own data, and you don't have any freedom."
These quotes reflect Tim Berners-Lee's vision for the web as an inclusive, empowering, and collaborative platform for all.
