Il sito dell’evento che il 9 maggio lancerà il nuovo laboratorio di ricerca del Media Lab dell’MIT è effettivamente un pò (suppongo volutamente) provocatorio.
The story of civilization is the story of humans and their tools. Use of tools has changed the human mind, altered the human body, and fundamentally reshaped human identity. Now at the dawn of the 21st century, a new category of tools and machines is poised to radically change humanity at a velocity well beyond the pace of Darwinian evolution
Dunque meritata la reazione tagliente ed ironica di Nicholas Carr
We’re definitely overdue for an upgrade – it seems like we’ve been stuck in Version 1.x for a few hundred thousand years, and that was after a beta that went on for freaking ever. Still, I think I’ll probably hold off until 2.01 or 2.02. I don’t want to be on the bleeding edge for this one.
Io invece no so se saprò resistere alla voglia di upgrade 😀
