This was a REALLY cool video and I hope we make something half as cool as this this year! For the future, this means that technology is going to be scary good and scary cool in the future - just ask your parents how fast this technology era has come for them, and it will seem like a technology era 2.0 when we are their ages.
My first reaction to this video was WOW. The thing that impacted me the most is that India has more honor students than America has kids. I think the us needs to get their game up and stop being ignorant and studying and working or we will no longer be a superpower country.
My VERY first reaction to this video is that I immediately recognized the song "right here, right now" because I love it and I think it fits this video very well. After finishing this video my reaction was awe at how fast things are changing. I think it's pretty scary actually. I mean as much as I love technology I feel like it's going to take over to a ridiculous degree. I feel like it's going to lead to something bad, like we're heading forward at such a fast speed that the human race is going to run itself right into a wall.
While this information seems startling and shocking, it isn't exactly that troublesome. Comparing the Middle Ages to Early Humans would be similar. For technology, there is a roof that everything reaches before it branches out and changes entirely. For example, what happens when they can't make something any better? For example; the definition on a TV or the quality of a video. When a roof is reached, i.e. there seems like there can be no more improvement, either the technology is expanded to push in different directions or the quality disintegrates as there is no competition because everyone has reached the same level of proficiency at production.
What does all this mean? Well it means very little seeing as the ocean levels will rise by 2050 and many major cities will be underwater. The human species will be having a worldwide crisis and no supercomputer will save us.
But barring that happening, with advancement comes conflict that drives back advancement. War, diseases etc all drive the need for a solution. And no mater how well we produce something, we cannot attain perfection. So what does this all mean? It means we still have a long way to go and many problems ahead. It's a little to early to start talking about how fast and advanced we are.
Well Joe, roofs may be reached, but that doesn't mean that humans can't blow the top off the building and make it higher. Do you think people saw the roof in the 90s with the computer? Who would have predicted the iPod 25 years ago?
And that's only if you believe that oceans will drown major cities. I'm going to wait for some legit evidence before we start worrying about water, or even global warming for that matter.
And I'm sure humans have NO problem talking about how fast and superior they are...after all, we're in the technology era, right?
After watching this video, all i could really say is "wow." In this clip it showed many facts for the future about technology and what may happen in the future, or what is even happening right this second. It's amazing how much we've progressed over the years in technology. Like who would of thought we can tell when an invention will be invented. For example in the video it announced that a supercomputer will be built that exceeds computational capabilities of the human brain. That is truly amazing. Not JUST about the invention, but how we even know this is going to happen. I love watching " Did you know?" videos because it really gets me wondering how things have changed in the past years.
I enjoyed the video a lot. When I was watching this video the facts they were giving were just extremely crazy.I found it funny when they said B.G (before google ) because they say it sounds like B.C as if google made an impact on history. I thought the video was great!
That was an amazing video! My reaction to this video was that I thought that it had a lot of information in such a short amount of time that was about topics that I wouldn't think about or know about if I hadn't seen the video. I think that this video is trying to show us how our world has advanced so much over time, even just a short amount of time. This shows that the information and technology we are going to have is so advanced that we are training to answer questions that don't even exist today! In the future we are going to have technology that we couldn't even imagine of having now!
To me this information is a little unsurprising. The human race is growing profoundly, and that means more people to invent new things to help people live to grow more. This creates new information which people want and sometimes need to learn. So of course by the time we're fifty we'll be outdated, it's a well known fact to me, but that doesn't mean we can't stare at all the cool sci-fi-like things that are happening around us.
Matt, you cannot disprove global warming... I know you fail at AP Bio but come on, some common sense here you hippy.
The problems that the human species as a whole has created are major. Pollution etc are major problems.
Matt about the roof, imagine Zeno's Paradox. Sure, you can always get closer, but there comes a point where it is fruitless to try to improve something marginally.
Hey I got a 3 on the exam...global warming is a belief, like anything is a belief, just go ask Duggan about that.
Maybe I'm ignorant but I don't really see them as problems. I think I'm more selfish than ignorant, because global warming, pollution, etc. doesn't seem to affect me directly and greatly right now.
And you just disproved yourself; you said you can always improve. Even if it's marginally, it's improving...the iPod 2 years ago and the iPod today are very different. They have iPhones and stuff...improvements are being made.

So you just got rocked.
