It is a gargantuan investment and leap of faith to assert, predict or seek to influence technological trajectories over a time scale of centuries.

Information Conflict may overwhelm us
When information and communications systems become massively autonomous, will we be able to react to the unfolding events in any competitive information and communications space?

Neural Network Concept Ontology
As Neural Networks get progressively smarter, our own intellect loses some of its unique character and special nature.
Systems-theoretical analyses of human conflict suggest that it may be an inevitable error or fault in the self-replication of those complex patterns of information and energy that we recognise as society, technology and historical metamorphosis.

It appears that a degree of ambiguity may be an inverse function of the generalised utility of any concept.
Selfies are memes and memes are cultural selfies through which a logic and self-replication of the question of individual or cultural self-identity reproduces itself.

Improbable Insights
What we require most critically is insight and effective methods for sharing valuable information with other minds. This is quite probably the most difficult communication task with which to successfully engage.
Radically divergent (or convergent) approaches face uphill battles against an entrenched intellectual intransigence and institutional conservatism.
The emergence of structured and patterned complexity may just be an inevitable consequence of a Cosmos in which the self-replicating, iterating logical process of self-replication itself represents the simplest, low-energy (and minimal algorithmic information complexity) state of any dynamical process.
Is consciousness an emergent phenomena from the mysteriously unintelligible sub-microscopic world of quantum mechanics ? Yes, and no.
