For example, if we had computers that could understand the meaning of the posts in News Feed and show you more things you\u2019re interested in, that would be pretty amazing. \u00a0Similarly, if we could build computers that could understand what&#8217;s in an image and could tell a blind person who otherwise couldn&#8217;t see that image, that would be pretty amazing as well. This is all within our reach and I hope we can deliver it in the next 10 years&#8230;&#8221; \u00a0In an interview with FastCompany, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fastcompany.com\/3052885\/mark-zuckerberg-facebook\" target=\"_blank\">he added that<\/a> &#8220;one of our goals for the next five to 10 years is to basically get better than human level at all of the primary human senses: vision, hearing, language, general cognition. \u00a0Taste and smell, we\u2019re not that worried about &#8230; For now.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Zuckerberg <a href=\"http:\/\/www.msn.com\/en-us\/news\/technology\/facebooks-zuckerberg-says-robots-better-than-humans-are-10-years-away\/ar-AAcrdiY\" target=\"_blank\">said that<\/a>\u00a0&#8220;we&#8217;re working on VR [virtual reality] because I think it&#8217;s the next major computing and communication platform after phones. \u00a0One day, I believe we&#8217;ll be able to send full rich thoughts to each other directly using technology. You&#8217;ll just be able to think of something and your friends will immediately be able to experience it too if you&#8217;d like. This would be the ultimate communication technology.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div class=\"lightsocial_container\"><div class=\"lightsocial_element\"><a class=\"lightsocial_a\"
