Is BJ that out of touch?

By

From an interview with a Reds journalist:

I think the new system with cameras is that for several years it will create so much information that nobody will have any idea what to do with it. It’s the first generation, I started this stuff I do before anyone had computers, I was literally adding stuff up in notebooks. When we all got computers it created so much information that for 10 years we were just bewildered by it and nobody had any idea what to do with it. The Pitch F/X stuff has done the same thing in the last five, six years, it’s created so much data that nobody’s been able to analyze it yet, in my view, and make much of it. I think the same thing will happen. Eventually something good will come of it, but it will take a while.
