Technological singularity



I draw this image using mspaint. This is inspired by Raymond Kurzweil's singularity. I don't know much about this.. only that in year 2045 (i will be 62 years old by that time), he theorize that a singularity will occur. This is triggered when an A.I. that will surpass human intelligence will be created and in turn it will create better A.I. (much like what happened in the movie, The Matrix). There will be a dramatic change in technology and "A.I.'s convert more and more of the Earth's matter into engineered, computational substrate capable of supporting more A.I.'s. until the whole Earth is one, gigantic computer." I don't know if you find it cool or not. :D I simply don't but it got me to draw the image above. :D

What's interesting is that these A.I.'s will turn other planets into supercomputers as well. I think this is a combo of the movies, The Matrix, I robot, Terminator, and Transformers.

"What's the GOOD NEWS today?", asked a friend of mine. She is the only person who ever asked me that question. I quickly thought about an answer and my mind swirled through many things that I consider good but I didn't pick any of them as an answer since I don't feel like discussing them, so I just answered , "a lot". Probably I want her to give me a cue which good she really want to hear about. :D

Today, I thought about it and I found an answer that I found interesting. Here is it:

The Good News about today is that today is not yesterday. If yesterday has been a bad day then today can be a different day. Today, is a new frontier; a new time to make it a better day. If yesterday, is a day filled with mistakes and embarrassments then today is the day we can just drop them off the buss and accept the fact that it happened. And despite of what happened we can still learn from our mistakes.

If yesterday, is a day of discouragement or despair then today, can be different. Today, we can pick up ourselves again and march forward in our lives unencumbered by any negative events in the past. Today is a a brand new day and we can be free.

If yesterday was a great day the today can be greater. Today, you can spread your wings farther than ever before. Today you can soar to higher heights. Today, you can win more battles. Today, you rise higher than ever before. Today, you can love more. Today you can live more. Today, you can care more. Today, you can hope more. Today, you can do more. Today, you can be better than yesterday.

And even if today, when you wake up and the sun does not appear... God promise that He will be there for you. Isn't that GOOD NEWS?
