One such way in which to prepare is for us all to understand the history and origins of each of these wonderful technologies, understand where the development stand today, and what the near future holds for humanity. As we spread our wings into this Technological Age of wonder, we see Neural Networks helping us to CrowdSource solutions to Humanity's problems, with such speed and advancement, that a challenge for World Governments will be to keep regulations in place that evolve with the new needs of our Civilization, remain flexible enough to encourage advancements to continue, and yet provide the necessary checks and balances to protect us from possible catastrophes.This book, is just a beginning.
