yeh, I've heard the next Iphone is gonna have not 2 or 3 but 5 cameras and that you will be able to take a picture of your asshole and your face simultaneously and then it will get automatically posted into your myspace and then some jap will make another of those really advanced robbots that can "smile" like a human...wake me up when someone invents nano robbots able to remove a tumor, that would be advancing in technology.

murphy's law? you mean like whenever you drop toast it always falls on the side spreaded with jam?...
computers havent really "evolved" that much, appart from the fact that components are cheaper and smaller, everthing else is basically the same shit as 20 years ago.

I think you mean Moore's law.
I'm not sure how one defines the processing power of the human mind. It wouldn't surprise me for a computer to beat that, but will it have the INTELLIGENCE? AI is around but I don't think it's growing at the same speed as processing power.

I have 3TB in my desktop computer, not 200GB. The statement about computers exceeding the processing power of the human mind in 2013 probably refers to Murphy's Law, which says that computational power increases every 18 to 24 months. It has held true since the 60s, but will collapse very, very soon unless increasingly complex "cheats" can be developed. if Murphy's Law holds until 2050, the Singularity comes, where computers evolve billions of years in an instant and attain sentience.

Please do. I'll be glad when all you anachronistic adults who can't adapt are dead. Then we will see what happens when there is no one left alive who wasn't raised to constantly adapt to new technologies, and no one to impede progress by complaining, "That's not how it was done back in the day." That's the point, and your generation has largely missed it. We don't WANT to live in a simpler place and time, a time of pretension, racism, and sexism. As much as Jerry Falwell thought we do, we don't.

geez, calm down. i know perfectly well of the threat that our society is facing through advancing technology and how it intimidates the integrity of human intelligence, and also how china's growing population and power is slowly taking over america's place as the world leading country. don't judge someone solely based off of a stupid comment they left on youtube.

28% percent of chinese prodigies disagree with that. |
