   Fun presentation. If you haven’t already, you should read Ray Kurzweil’s “The Singularity is Near” (http://www.amazon.com/Singularity-Near-Humans-Transcend-Biology/dp/0670033847). He takes this view of exponential development to the extreme, eg we will all have merged with ‘the machine’ in about 40 years or so…

   I think the video version of it is even more interesting :

   And I agree with Max, Kurzweil’s book is brilliant !
