It seems that any time I read one of these sorts of articles the "guru" merely indulges their arrogance in assuming that with a little time and effort we'll eventually figure out how to be God. They never seem to take into account the difficulty of figuring out how. Beyond that they rarely worry about the repercussions of the technology. If we become wired to technology in every aspect of our lives then we are in big f***ing trouble when the software and/or hardware crashes. This sort of dependence could bring a painful new meaning to the Blue Screen of Death.
