The recipe from the article should still work: Hire a bunch of smart people, give them advance funding for 5 years without strings attached, tell them to build the future without specifying what that means. From a personal view I have plenty of ideas for things never built before, but I lack the time and energy to do it after hours and I can almost never fit it into the scope of my professional work. Sometimes this makes me sad.
