1) Computers have become increasingly powerful over time, growing from basic calculators to devices with vast processing capabilities. 2) Future technologies may include quantum computing, brain-computer interfaces that can upload minds digitally, and even simulating entire human brains at the molecular level. 3) How technology and human capabilities progress depends on ongoing innovation and what boundaries we are willing to push in our exploration of new ideas.

1. Computer
Future
History will be kind to me for I intend to write it.
Winston Churchill

2. Wozu brauchen wir Computer?

3. Das ultimative Tool

5. Although personally I am quite content with
existing explosives, I feel we must not stand in
the path of improvement.

Now this is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the
end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning.
