I'm confused by this HN submission title, which is currently "What can be the next big thing after the internet?" The linked article has little to do with that title, other than being about the potential for artificial intelligence to develop new technology.
- akomtu 5y agoThe article sells AI snake oil, but talking point is still interesting. The next logical step will be discovery of superconducting minerals somewhere on Mars. The next step for software is making a step into reality. So far software runs on chips and does purely virtual things. With invention of "nano robots" of some kind, software will be able to assemble massive projects that people can't assemble even with machinery. But I also believe it's still a pipe dream.
