Convergence can refer to previously separate technologies such as voice (and telephony features), data (and productivity applications) and video that now share resources and interact with each other, creating new efficiencies. Emerging technologies are those technical innovations which represent progressive developments within a field for competitive advantage; converging technologies represent previously distinct fields which are in some way moving towards stronger inter-connection and similar goals. However, the opinion on the degree of impact, status and economic viability of several emerging and converging technologies vary. Many writers, including computer scientist Bill Joy, have identified clusters of technologies that they consider critical to humanity’s future. Joy warns that the technology could be used by elites for good or evil. They could use it as “good shepherds” for the rest of humanity, or decide everyone else is superfluous and push for mass extinction of those made unnecessary by technology. Advocates of the benefits of technological change typically see emerging and converging technologies as offering hope for the betterment of the human condition.

    My classmates laughed when I told them I would get extra cash with “Morsch Money Secret”, but then they saw the results. Go google “Morsch Money Secret” to see their reaction. (It was epic!)

    Who will buy if no human is working? Greed will destroy this society, under the pretext of advancement.

    People should be happy that technology is freeing them.We will need a resource-based economy for this new era.This will eventually happen because it is part of evolution.
    watch zeitgeist moving forward.

    sure, but the exponential rate at which it is happening and will happen in the next 30 years is like a bus out of control, we may be traveling to a happy place but i doesn’t mean we cant’ crash
    .
    if it reaches a point at which we cant keep, unemployment will explode and people will hit the streets unless the economic model changes
    .
    in the future those with the means of production (machinery) have the power.

    Technology will always take away old jobs and add new ones. Ever heard of vinyl records? it was huge. Ever heard of typewriters? huge. technology comes and goes and replaces itself, those who learn to change and adapt quickly to rapid change will be the most successful. The cycle will continue. More jobs will be automated or disappear entirely and new technology will create new jobs. boom.
