Look out, here come the replicators...

Check out the link below for a project called "M-TRAN." It talks about an engineering effort to build modular, adaptable machines that instantly made me think "replicators" when I read a Discover article about them.

When they start being able to exert a modulating monopolar energy field on the seperate modules and start resembling insects then I'll start worying.

Now when you think of AI in the world and you compare how it could turn into the terminator, but when you learn what the replicators can do, the terminators look like toys still. the terminator will be around in 50 years i bet lol then replicators in 150 on earth

Hmm

In 50 years I think sentinent AI beings will exist

Humans excelerate very vast. It took what, 20-30 years for a spaceship to be conceived? ( The first ideas for it were by the Japanese in WWII right? )

Flight itself took less than a lifetime.

Computers...

Cloneing...

Never underestimate the human ingenuity
