Abstract
Adaptive Optics for Extremely Large Telescopes could need to be forzen, at conceptual level, within a few years. This requires to identify the directions of innovation which can have some chance to give improvement by a large factor. I try to outline some examples of such possible developments, in order to get an idea of how much margin can still be available for innovating concepts in this recently growing field.
