Did Drexler predict that we would have swarms of self-repairing micro-robots by 2022? I don't know the answer to that, I'm genuinely asking the question.
Like what's the timeline for nano-technology as predicted all those years ago and are we on that timeline?
- pdimitar 4y agoI haven't seen the author of the OP article talk about timelines. It was about skeptics not being able to disprove that we will NOT have that at some point. Which I found to be good criticism because many charlatans operate exactly like that: (a) make a nebulous claim, (b) get called out, (c) pull the "you can't disprove me" card while OBVIOUSLY a good scientific discussion should go the other way: the claimer should prove their claims. That's why I liked the OP article where the author called Drexler a sci-fi writer.
