The coming technological singularity
    #12671248 -

Quote:
Although technological progress has been accelerating, it has been limited by the basic intelligence of the human brain, which has not changed significantly for millennia.[1] However with the increasing power of computers and other technologies, it might eventually be possible to build a machine that is more intelligent than humanity.


From wikipedia
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technological_singularity


I, for one, welcome our new technological overlords.

We are so far removed from that level of computing right now that it's just fantasy to think about it.

Edit: Also, about the human brain not changing for a millenium -  I'm not sure if it's physically changed or not, but think about how much more we know now than we did in the year 1000.  And I'm sure our brains have the capacity to increase that knowledge a lot more before we "max it out."

Ugh.  I got way too baked last night and stared at that dude in your signature for like 15 minutes without blinking.

Only after the last tree's cut
And the last river poisoned
Only after the last fish is caught
Will you find that money cannot be eaten
