And thats what scares me.
A thinking human brain that has the power to control anything and everything. It will eventually start acting on its own. A all-powerful sentiment being that has the power to control everything. Wow. I can see it now. It seems like a corny movie, but the possibilities are all too real.
Only difference is I see no solution, no Will Smith to swoop in and save the day.
If this truely happens, what happens when this being experiecnes greed?
That is the day that the shit really hits the fan.
But thats just another apocalypse theory. Dont worry about it
