The technological evolution notably occurs at a faster pace compared to biological evolution. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8\" style=\"text-align: justify;\" data-reactid=\".0.$SITE_ROOT.$desktop_siteRoot.$PAGES_CONTAINER.1.1.$SITE_PAGES.$c193z.1.$ppPrt7-4aw.0.0.$child.$0.1.$1.$5.$0.0.3\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Open Sans';\">To further understand the situation, imagine a frog in a pot of water that heats up 1\/10th of a degree Celsius every ten seconds. Even if the frog remained in that water for, say an hour, it would be unable to feel the minute changes in temperature. However, if the frog is dropped into boiling water, the change is too sudden and the frog jumps away to avoid fate. \u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #800080; font-size: 16px; font-family: 'Open Sans';\"><strong>The development of technology over time<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Open Sans';\">In the year 1959, a year of global transistor output of 60 million transistors was considered extraordinary. It was deemed a manufacturing achievement to produce such a significant amount. Although looking at the world today, it pales in comparison to how far the transistor development has come.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Open Sans';\">A modern i7 Skylake processor contains around 1,750,000,000 transistors. It would take 29 years of 1959\u2019s transistor global production to match one i7 Skylake transistor count. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Open Sans';\">The transistor manufacturing size in an i7 Skylake processor is 14 nm. For reference, a silicon atom is about 0.1176 nm across: 14\/0.1176=119 Meaning, a transistor in an i7 Skylake processor is only about 119 atoms across. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #800080; font-size: 16px; font-family: 'Open Sans';\"><strong>Technology builds upon technology<\/strong> <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Open Sans';\">Technology helps build better technology. We can see that in the past, civilization was limited to the usage of paper and writing. Calculations done by hand tend to be slow and tedious. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Open Sans';\">More advanced technology gives us the better means of designing even more sophisticated technology. Modern computers have more processing power to model out deeper concepts and ideas which, in return, help towards building even more sophisticated computers, leading to a loop of technological progress. See, civilization started at a point where little progress is seen over a long time. After centuries of innovation, there will come a time where progress is noticeable by the second.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Open Sans';\">As storage, computing power and computer architecture, in general, improve over time, the interconnectivity of man goes up as well, leading to the beginnings of the Internet, the phase where humanity can globally upload, store and share information.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Open Sans';\">As time passes, we also tend to outdo ourselves. From Deep Blue which beat world chess champion Garry Kasparov in the year 1997 to computers that you can hold in your hands, computing was used not only to perform tasks that require extensive manpower but also to surpass it. For example, the modern smartphone, compared to the ENIAC, provides more computing power and is thousands of times smaller.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8\" style=\"text-align: justify;\" data-reactid=\".0.$SITE_ROOT.$desktop_siteRoot.$PAGES_CONTAINER.1.1.$SITE_PAGES.$c193z.1.$ppPrt7-4aw.0.0.$child.$0.1.$1.$5.$0.0.29\"><span style=\"color: #800080; font-size: 16px; font-family: 'Open Sans';\"><strong><span data-reactid=\".0.$SITE_ROOT.$desktop_siteRoot.$PAGES_CONTAINER.1.1.$SITE_PAGES.$c193z.1.$ppPrt7-4aw.0.0.$child.$0.1.$1.$5.$0.0.29.0\">The human brain vs the future<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8\" style=\"text-align: justify;\" data-reactid=\".0.$SITE_ROOT.$desktop_siteRoot.$PAGES_CONTAINER.1.1.$SITE_PAGES.$c193z.1.$ppPrt7-4aw.0.0.$child.$0.1.$1.$5.$0.0.2a\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Open Sans';\">There is nothing magical about the human brain, it is an extremely sophisticated biological machine (so to say) that is capable of adapting to environment, capable of creativity, awareness, analyzation, and much more.\u00a0Compared to cognitively inferior animals like the chimpanzee that only has 7 billion neurons, we exist in a domain different from them, existing within their type in world.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8\" style=\"text-align: justify;\" data-reactid=\".0.$SITE_ROOT.$desktop_siteRoot.$PAGES_CONTAINER.1.1.$SITE_PAGES.$c193z.1.$ppPrt7-4aw.0.0.$child.$0.1.$1.$5.$0.0.2c\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Open Sans';\">Therefore, theoretically speaking, superintelligence lies on a domain above us.
