We already live in a world of
‘haves and have-nots’, but in the future could that gap widen into
an immense chasm resulting in a technocracy with two-tiers of
genetically engineered humans? Predictions have been made with
regards to robotics and genetic evolution, and there is data to back
each theory up. This article briefly investigates each claim. |

"School trains
children to be employees and consumers; teach
your own to be leaders and adventurers. School
trains children to obey reflexively; teach your
own to think critically and independently.
Well-schooled kids have a low threshold for
boredom; help your own to develop an inner life
so that they'll never be bored." -- John Taylor

The
Technocracy and the Genetic
Engineering of Humanity
We already live in a world of ‘haves
and have-nots’, but in the future
could that gap widen into an immense
chasm resulting in a technocracy
with two-tiers of genetically
engineered humans?
Flashback:
One
generation is all they need
One day we will all
happily be implanted with
microchips, and our every move will
be monitored. The technology exists;
the only barrier is society's
resistance to the loss of privacy.
A Global
Wireless Network?
Under WSAN application, deployment
and eExperiences, various themes
such as surveillance, disaster
prediction and management,
transportation and traffic
management, security and defence...
Hobbyists
are trying genetic engineering at
home
he Apple
computer was invented in a garage.
Same with the Google search engine.
Now, tinkerers are working at home
with the basic building blocks of
life itself.
