XáreneThu, Jul 12, 2007 I agree with some of his 'predictions' and disagree with many as well. The whole concept of being human and having feelings gets reinvented. Again, I am thinking within the limit of my experiences and therefore the thought of a mediated life through nanobots and virtual reality doesn't sound appealing... interesting and something I would love to try, but not live in. He puts much emphasis on how we basically become machines (not the definition of human). Do we really evolve out of our species? The whole concept of Darwinian evolution is based on each specie evolving from one to another? So conceptually it is a given step in evolution that we evolve into another specie, but is that specie the machine?
