Google Will One Day Replace The Human Brain

Thanks for returning. You're a very smart person.

Google is evil.

Not evil how others see Google, but evil in that they are building the most advanced artificial intelligence structure ever known under the guise of the pursuit of a better Internet search. After reading Marissa Meyer’s piece on the future of search, a response to her recent misquote that is rich in artificial intelligence references (anything from voice context interpretation to “wearable” devices), I am left with an eerie feeling that as Google continues on it’s upon unabated path it will play a pivotal role in the creation of an artificial race and or replacing our current human OS with one far superior to the one we are currently using.

In many ways the human brain was the first “card catalog.” It is a system for the recording a database of records that can be called based on the input of a variable. The problem, however, with the human card catalog is that it is limited in size and scope - since it is localize by both both human and location. The advent of the Internet and now the pursuit of better search by Google is recreating the human card catalog except improving upon it by eliminating the two factors that limit its ultimate “potential” - centralization and geography. With the Internet there is decentralization of information and there exists interconnection across geographies.

The result? Quite possibly the creation of a replacement for the human brain.

And if that is ever integrated with the physical human structure, their would be little to no reason not to replace the inferior product with a superior one thus changing the way we think, learn and understand forever. We would know longer “go to” Google - we would merely think and Google would fetch an answer. Google would become the human OS. Imagine that, all of us humans, interconnected “sharing” of own card catalogs.

How’s that for science fiction
