BEWARE. “One Nobel Laureate said: Well, there’s no way we’re going to see self-replicating nano-technological entities for at least 100 years. And I then replied that: Yes, that’s actually a reasonable estimate of how much work it will take–it’ll take 100 years of progress, at today’s rate of progress, to get self-replicating nanotechnological entities. But the rate of progress is not going to remain at today’s rate, and I’ll be showing you some charts of what’s happening to the rate of “paradigm shifts”; it’s doubling every decade. We will make 100 years of progress, at today’s rate, in 25 years.”
