    I’m optimistic. I like that this is ruining the existing commercialized model, but not the 00s one (used by nobody, but).

    This also follows Lem’s Megabit Bomb, he has been very good at predicting future we will have and describing future we’d like to have (two completely different things).

      That’s a pretty obscure reference, at least in English. For those wondering, I found this in a bibliography of Stanisław Lem:

      Bomba megabitowa (The Megabit Bomb, 1999) – Collection of essays about the potential downside of technology, including terrorism and artificial intelligence.

        Well, yes, it may be obscure, but it’s amazing to see our development so well described with the feel of something retrofuturistic, think Pascal, monochrome terminal displays, Nostromo-like spaceships …

        TBF I’m not sure which things I remember from there and which from Summa Technologiae.
