A Quote

A fav quote of mine from one of my all time fav books (The Star Fraction by Ken MacLeod)

'You know' Janis said thoughtfully 'people used to talk about the Breakthrough, the Singularity, when all the technological trends would take off and the whole world would change; AI, Nanotechnology, cell repair, uploading our minds to better bodies and living for ever yay! And it always almost happens but never quite: we get closer and closer but we never get there. Maybe we never get there because we're being stopped.'
