| Bart has reinvigorated Timewatch by proposing and starting several new products, including reProphet. The latter became a sensation and has changed the face of technology from basic AI with the ability to do advertising to a menacing general purpose intelligence capable of modeling the responses of real people. | Bart has reinvigorated Timewatch by proposing and starting several new products, including reProphet.

| + | |||
| + | Early on Bart Hufnagel was known to be extremely secretive about the upcoming products. However, when in a 2002 interview he claimed that reProphet was announced during his keynote speech at a Timewatch event to thousands of people, it became quickly apparent that nobody seems to know anyone who actually attended. The only person who claimed attendance in the past was Ken Stewart, but by that time he was already dead. | ||
| + | |||
| + | This has given rise to rumors that everyone at the secret keynote was killed. During the next more publicized Timewatch event of 2003 most people decided not to go, and those who went were denied access to the keynote speech. | ||
| + | Since then it is widely believed that Bart Hufnagel is doing his keynotes in front of an empty audience. | ||
