I wonder what psychology as a discipline will look like in twenty years? I feel like what we're learning now about the human mind through our study of neural networks is similar to the early work in cellular biology that eventually replaced metaphor-based models in medicine (e.g. 'humors') with more ontological ones. Freud's Ego, Superego and Id are gone. So are 'complexes'. Our model of the human mind currently seems to be limited to 'conscious and subconscious'. I'm excited at the prospect of something much better.
