Within thirty years, we will have the technological means to create superhuman intelligence.

But if the technological Singularity can happen, it will.

And for all my rampant technological optimism, sometimes I think I'd be more comfortable if I were regarding these transcendental events from one thousand years remove... instead of twenty.

Intelligence is the handmaiden of flexibility and change.

I am suggesting that we recognize that in network and interface research there is something as profound (and potential wild) as Artificial Intelligence.

We humans have millions of years of evolutionary baggage that makes us regard competition in a deadly light.
