How about by 2013, a super computer will out perform the human brain? That is most disturbing and exciting at the same time. Oh shit, Skynet has become self-aware!

My professors have repeatedly told me that. The material we are learning isn’t what is important, but the ability to learn and adapt and teach ourselves is.

“predictions are that by 2049, a $1000 computer will exceed the computational capabilities of the entire human species.”

Maybe a $5 computer in 2049 will exceed computational capabilities of the entire human species but if everyone has an IQ of 10 it won’t be such a grand act after all.
