Singularity

I believe that to have the intelligence to drive or make ethical decisions you need to be human.  Technology is supposed to help us do our jobs, not completely take over.  If technology continues to progress into what the article, "2045: The Year Man Becomes Immortal" by Lev Grossman, says it will, there will be no use for humans to be here since computers are doing everything for them.  I find this a bad thing because we are supposed to die someday, that's just how life is supposed to be.  Kurzweil believes that computers will soon be able to make us immortal.  He thinks that 46 years from now, computers will be more intelligent than humans and soon we will completely transformed.

I think that Bernard is definitely on to something.  He realizes that there is something wrong with the way his society manipulates their people's minds and he is the only one that realizes this.  People are born with individual rights and they take these rights away by forcing everyone to be the same.  I understand that this makes progress but it is taking progress way too far.
