I've encountered a lot of people who sound like critics but very few who have substantive criticisms. There is a lot of skepticism, but it seems to be more a matter of inertia than it is of people having some real reason for thinking something else.

In a sense, artificial intelligence will be the ultimate tool because it will help us build all possible tools. - K. Eric Drexler

It's a lot easier to see, at least in some cases, what the long-term limits of the possible will be, because they depend on natural law. But it's muc… - K. Eric Drexler
