Lest everyone get ready to blacklist and unsub at the drop of a hat.
Let me clarify what is at the root of this complex network of
relations: thinking machines. Thinking machines used to rebuild
economies and construct city states run by economic blocks. It is
highly unlikely that most owners will encounter this problem. If
optical processors think in some meaningful way not just process
totally new languages are implied and even a "mind" for the machine
which will probably be a little different than human thought. Why
create redundancy when the human mind needs tools. -- Paul.
