Chips with small feature sizes and paints with nanoparticles in them are not really what was originally meant by "nanotechnology". We still do not have the cap

Chips with small feature sizes and paints with nanoparticles in them are not really what was originally meant by "nanotechnology". We still do not have the capability to design and build arbitrary machinery using individual molecules as building materials. In the meantime, the word "nanotechnology" got appropriated to refer to anything that involved small feature sizes and needed funding grants, so Drexler started calling it "molecular manufacturing"...
