Yah, don't know where the info were sourced from, but still interesting stuff.

the part where it says by 2049 a $1000 can exceed the entire human speicies computation skills is a bit far-fetched..yes we've been growing at an exponential rate...but eventually that rate will start slowing down.

could happen ? :P i mean dont we only use like 10% of our brain? o.O

We're on a curve, I suspect, and eventually we will plateau and get to the point of diminishing gains. We've changed focus from CPU power to bandwidth capability. We will shift again, but I have no idea where to.

Perhaps most of the internet is, but I'd like to think that most normal people don't fall into that category.

CPU power will continue to grow exponentially once a replacement for silicon is found

So... like what does all this mean???

Organics, instead of running just 2 states, 0 and 1, it can have a ridiculous number of states, almost like a hybrid of digital and analog.

I saw a similar video like this in a communications class about Globalization. Pretty interesting.
