All media are extensions of some human faculty psychic or physical. The wheel is an extension of the foot. The book is an extension of the eye. Clothing, an extension of the skin. Electric circuitry, an extension of the central nervous system.

Media, by altering the environment, evoke in us unique ratios of sense perceptions. The extension of any one sense alters the way we think and act the way we perceive the world. When these ratios change, men change.- McLuhan, The medium is the Message6

We shape our tools,and thereafterour tools shape us.

Fr. John Culkin(Marshall McLuhan)11

De dingen die we maken, televisie, radio, internet, die dingen maken een nieuwe omgeving. Als je een nieuw medium introduceert verandert deze onze kijk op de wereld, politiek, oorlog De auto heeft de hele inrichting van de maatschappij veranderd.. 11

We shape our tools,and thereafterour tools shape us.

Nicholas Carr: At both a personal and an institutional level, we have come to assume that efficiency and convenience are always good, and maximising those things is always a worthy goal. And it does seem to me that this is a naive approach to take when thinking about technology in all its forms: in particular when thinking about computer automation, but also when thinking about our own desires and experience of life and of the world.

So thats one part of it. But then the other part is to go even farther and say, human beings are so fundamentally flawed that we need to give them as small a role as possible, and look to computers to do everything possible that we can make computers do. Its not only about trying to remedy human beings flaws, its also about saying, if we can just get humans out of the picture and let the computers do things, we will be much better off.

I think that gets to a fundamental point, which is that the question isnt, should we automate these sophisticated tasks?, its how should we use automation, how should we use the computer to complement human expertise, to offset the weaknesses and flaws in human thinking and behaviour, and also to ensure that we get the most out of our expertise by pushing ourselves to ever higher levels?

We dont want to become so dependent on software that we turn ourselves into watchers of computer monitors and fillers-out of checklists. Computers can play a very important role, here, because we are flawed; we do fall victim to biases or we overlook important information. But the danger is that you jump from that to saying, just let the computer do everything, which I think is the wrong course.

Raymond Kurzweil Hybrid Thinking

Lineair vs. Exponentieel29

Lineair vs. Exponentieel30

31

32It is in the nature of exponential growth that events develop extremely slowly for extremely long periods of time, but as one glides through the knee of the curve, events erupt at an increasingly furious pace. And that is what we will experience as we enter the twenty-first century.

Before the next century is over, human beings will no longer be the most intelligent or capable type of entity on the planet.- The age of Spiritual Machines

To invent something is to invent an accident. To invent the ship is to invent the shipwreck; the space shuttle, the explosion. And to invent the electronic superhighway or the Internet is to invent a major risk which is not easily spotted because it does not produce fatalities like a shipwreck or a mid-air explosion. The information accident is, sadly, not very visible. It is immaterial like the waves that carry information.- Cyberresistance Fighter 2005

Technology has given life the opportunity to flourish like never before or to self-destruct. futureoflife.org

Where does that leave us? Robots zijn goed in herhaalbare taken, perfect uitvoeren, betrouwbaar, mensen zijn creatief, kritisch, nadenken.
