RAY KURZWEIL & DR MOREAU

"We must come to accept robots/artificial intelligence with human qualities
as long as they are sufficiently complex and can interact with us"(R.K @SXSW today)
Remember H G Wells"The Island of Dr Moreau "?
We watched the Director's Cut(Directed by John Frankenheimer(The Manchurian Candidate)
with the late huge Marlon Brando and Val Kilmer-
and that Nazi mixture of human /animal genes which failed
Remember that sheep they cloned"Dolly)?
Remember stem cells controversy?
Remember (still fictional)BLADE RUNNER? TERMINATOR?I,ROBOT?KARA?
The theme has become passe-the reality has replaced Hollywood
ABUNDANCE Seminars point out successful human DNA research
to map the human genome code/and to replicate life
Ray Kurzweil joins WIRED and futurists like William Gibson
in proclaiming the inevitability of human /machine robot models
Car factories already deploy many.Some are in households(and cars)
Your GPS.Your remote computer programming.Your limited life choices
Tour Diebold voting machines.Your MINORITY REPORTS
This is more than 1984 in 2012.More than a BRAVE NEW WORLD
More than ANIMAL FARM .This was written by a human poet robot on a word processor
soon to be made redundant
