The Manifest Destiny of Artificial Intelligence

"If our world survives, the next great challenge to watch out for will
come - you heard it here first - when the curves of research and
development in artificial intelligence, molecular biology and robotics
all converge. Oboy. It will be amazing and unpredictable, and even the
biggest of brass, let us devoutly hope, are going to be caught
flat-footed. It is certainly something for all good Luddites to look
forward to if, God willing, we should live so long."
