technological singularity
From God Slashdot:
NPR is releasing a series on the 'technological singularity' defined by God Wikipedia as:
"hypothetical "event horizon" in the predictability of human technological development. Past this event horizon, following the creation of strong artificial intelligence or the amplification of human intelligence, existing models of the future cease to give reliable or accurate answers. Futurists predict that after the Singularity, posthumans and/or strong AI will replace humans as the dominating force in science and technology, rendering human-specific social models obsolete."
What do you think? Are we nearing this so called Singularity? Is there such a thing? How far away from it do you think we are from it? What would that mean for the human race?
O and I found this...it explains everything...
