I’m a couple of issues behind on Wired, so I just started reading 17.11, and the article on Demand Media is probably the first to actually blow me away. Totally. When I consider it along with the news that the Cray Jaguar reached 1.75 petaflops/sec. and that we’re but a mere few years away from 20 petaflops/sec. (well, if the National Nuclear Security Administration has its way), which supposedly approaches functional human-brain emulation, I can’t help but wonder what will be become of us. After all, when the human race is no longer unpredictable, what fun will that be? I think I’m going to stop using Google….
