They say "if you scratch a cynic [br]you'll find a disappointed idealist" 0:26:00.594,0:26:06.224 And I would admit that somewhere underneath all [br]of these, there is a flicker of a flame of idealism, 0:26:06.224,0:26:09.895 that would love to see [br]it at all... changed. 0:26:32.292,0:26:35.770 THE COLLAPSE 0:26:37.641,0:26:40.823 The monetary system seems [br]likely to collapse. 0:26:41.269,0:26:45.992 I said “it seems” because I cannot [br]know if it will happen or not. 0:26:46.608,0:26:51.267 So far, we’ve examined the monetary system, [br]and seen how harmful it is, 0:26:51.472,0:26:56.726 and we presented solutions to improve the [br]situations created by the monetary system. 0:26:57.490,0:27:00.474 We now realize that these [br]solutions are needed, 0:27:00.574,0:27:04.716 because all evidence points [br]towards this system collapsing. 0:27:05.155,0:27:09.030 This is some of the evidence which [br]points towards a collapse: 0:27:09.130,0:27:12.982 To get any kind of goods or [br]services, you need money, 0:27:13.082,0:27:16.058 and the only way to [br]get money, is work. 0:27:16.158,0:27:20.577 Basically, you have to do something for the [br]monetary system to receive money. 0:27:20.677,0:27:24.487 Now, just from here this collapse comes. 0:27:25.222,0:27:28.433 People without a job will not [br]have purchasing power. 0:27:28.857,0:27:31.837 Remember, the monetary system [br]has a massive problem [br] 0:27:31.837,0:27:34.837 when there are fewer jobs [br]than unemployed people. 0:27:35.801,0:27:38.067 As we saw when we [br]talked about work, 0:27:38.067,0:27:42.197 jobs are increasingly replaced by [br]automation through machinery, 0:27:42.197,0:27:45.255 this is an ongoing and [br]progressive process. 0:27:45.919,0:27:49.193 It doesn’t matter if your job is [br]irreplaceable at the moment, 0:27:49.438,0:27:52.461 if hundreds of thousands of people [br]can not work anymore, 0:27:52.461,0:27:55.260 then, there will be problems. 0:27:55.837,0:28:00.019 You are not the only participant [br]in the monetary system. 0:28:03.003,0:28:07.624 People will not have purchasing power.[br]It doesn't matter if the prices fall, 0:28:07.624,0:28:09.650 or some salaries increase, 0:28:09.660,0:28:13.794 if the majority of the population [br]does not have purchasing power, 0:28:13.794,0:28:16.876 there will be major problems. 0:28:17.751,0:28:20.831 The second situation is represented [br]by the monetary system’s 0:28:20.831,0:28:23.831 inability to cope with technology. 0:28:24.530,0:28:27.532 Let's just refer to two technologies. 0:28:29.071,0:28:30.952 [ 3D PRINTERS ] 0:28:32.050,0:28:34.249 [Scott Summit, Industrial Designer] - All that [br]stuff can just be built in the printers. 0:28:34.249,0:28:37.649 The person is not designing, the person [br]isn't expected to be an architect. 0:28:37.649,0:28:40.150 They just know what their intent is. [br]And they'd push their intent around, 0:28:40.150,0:28:42.494 the computer gives them [br]all the assistance 0:28:42.494,0:28:44.804 as though they are sitting with an [br]architect right behind them. 0:28:44.804,0:28:47.382 Say you now got 3D scanning [br]getting into the computer 0:28:47.382,0:28:49.175 tweaking it around, [br]doing it automatically 0:28:49.175,0:28:52.415 so you don't have a skilled professional [br]needed to do everything you do. 0:28:52.415,0:28:55.472 They have to spit it out and make some [br]useful item. In this world things get fun. 0:28:55.472,0:29:01.148 Digital fabrication, you can call it absolutely anything, [br]because it's an asthmatic nightmare here. 0:29:01.248,0:29:05.065 These are all the names that I came up within [br]5 minutes for it, but it has a lot more. 0:29:06.125,0:29:09.423 It's, you know, it's an engineering tool, [br]so no one knows what to call it. 0:29:09.423,0:29:12.581 But basically what it is, it's an additive process, [br]as you guys have seen with 0:29:12.581,0:29:15.581 the MakerBot, and it's stuff back here, 0:29:15.581,0:29:20.537 it's additive, that's the main difference, it's that [br]you are assembling molecules either by layer 0:29:20.537,0:29:24.851 or by dust particle, or by liquid that is [br]been cindered, a liquid being deposited, 0:29:24.851,0:29:26.375 you're doing that layer, [br]by layer, by layer. 0:29:26.375,0:29:31.181 You do it enough times and you get a pretty good [br]proximity of what you originally intended. 0:29:31.181,0:29:34.427 So that's typical machine, [br]this is a liquid base machine. 0:29:34.427,0:29:36.646 If you are going to be [br]designing car wheels, 0:29:36.646,0:29:41.032 it would be really hard to machine each one [br]out of a block of plastic and get the lightness, 0:29:41.032,0:29:43.539 better you just, you do design, [br]sent it out to print, 0:29:43.539,0:29:45.739 come back the next day, put it out of [br]the oven and you are ready to go. 0:29:45.739,0:29:48.992 So, the whole situation notes [br]that the complexity is free, 0:29:48.992,0:29:50.822 when you are doing [br]additive fabrication, 0:29:50.822,0:29:51.822 and now you suddenly, 0:29:51.822,0:29:53.650 you are kind of being [br]challenged, if anything, 0:29:53.650,0:29:56.650 to see if you can be as creative [br]as the tool lets you be, 0:29:56.650,0:29:58.958 because it can do far more than [br]your brain can even handle. 0:29:58.958,0:30:03.099 That's ... that's where things get exciting about it, [br]is that you really don't have limits to it. 0:30:04.459,0:30:08.818 Just talking about metals. You know, [br]that's one of the new exciting things. 0:30:08.818,0:30:12.033 Metals are used to be a real pain, [br]now they are getting good. 0:30:12.033,0:30:16.268 Turbine blades are things that are really [br]difficult to machine or making the other way, 0:30:16.268,0:30:20.333 you can make really high definition, [br]really high-quality metal parts now. 0:30:21.043,0:30:22.960 Medical stuff 0:30:24.395,0:30:26.679 I have "Plan before you cut". 0:30:26.679,0:30:29.091 The cool thing is, ok, if you [br]come in and you've got really... 0:30:29.091,0:30:32.852 you've fallen off your ??? horse and [br]you've destroyed your shoulder 0:30:32.852,0:30:36.662 and they have to figure out... ok you [br]have bone fragments all over the place. 0:30:36.662,0:30:41.193 They have to strategize before they [br]go in and have you under gas. 0:30:41.193,0:30:45.593 So they can actually do MRI, [br]get your bone structure, 0:30:45.593,0:30:47.333 MRI or CT or one of those, 0:30:47.333,0:30:49.203 get the bone structure, [br]get the diacom ??? data, 0:30:49.203,0:30:52.940 three-dimensionally print the whole thing [br]and strategize on it before they open you up. 0:30:52.940,0:30:54.151 So, they know where [br]all the parts are 0:30:54.151,0:30:55.292 and they know what parts [br]can come out 0:30:55.292,0:30:57.552 and which are going to get [br]real injured in which way. 0:30:58.192,0:31:01.722 So this is John [br]in a 3D Body scan. 0:31:01.722,0:31:03.839 There is a perimetric model. 0:31:03.839,0:31:08.859 So this model can take any human, you [br]drop it in, and say "OK, re-instantiate". 0:31:08.859,0:31:11.785 There is John's sound side leg mirrored over 0:31:11.785,0:31:14.535 dropped into the perimetric [br]model before instantiating, 0:31:14.535,0:31:16.154 and there's the new leg. 0:31:16.154,0:31:21.206 So this is this leg... it gives... again it [br]gives me a sense of symmetry back. 0:31:21.327,0:31:23.071 You know, it's kind of big deal. 0:31:23.071,0:31:27.698 It has a seven by-link???, so the motion of the knee[br]is perfectly calibrated to the human motion. 0:31:27.698,0:31:29.466 It moves to the same [br]motion that we do. 0:31:29.466,0:31:31.655 The foot is sprung just [br]like our own ankle. 0:31:31.655,0:31:33.855 The cast for kneme is here, [br]the cuff muscle, 0:31:33.855,0:31:37.115 that sprung according to the person's [br]weight and activity level. 0:31:37.115,0:31:41.345 So that would give spring back [br]to each step, something that... 0:31:41.345,0:31:42.947 because you are printing all pieces at once, 0:31:42.947,0:31:45.537 you don't have the titanium mounting [br]parts and all the other details, 0:31:45.537,0:31:48.367 you just print the whole thing [br]complexity and all. It's hollow. 0:31:48.367,0:31:51.077 So there is a rib structure inside, [br]just like a bird wing. 0:31:51.077,0:31:54.267 That keeps it really strong and [br]really light simultaneously. 0:31:54.621,0:31:58.341 [Student] - Which materials can you use? [br]Just plastic and metal? 0:31:58.341,0:32:02.351 [Scott] - There's plastics, metals,ceramic,[br]glass, all kind of polymers... 0:32:02.965,0:32:05.760 ABS type, PVC type... 0:32:07.358,0:32:11.381 This is polyamide type, there maybe [br]twenty types of polyamides, 0:32:11.381,0:32:14.075 carbon-filled, fire-retardants...[br] 0:32:14.075,0:32:15.535 [Student] - Biopolymers? 0:32:15.535,0:32:18.447 [Scott] - There are biopolymers. [br]The guy you talked to is Andrew Hessel, 0:32:18.447,0:32:21.703 and he is part of the faculty here at the Singularity [br](University), he knows about that stuff 0:32:21.703,0:32:24.956 I don't know about biostuff, but yes there [br]is a ton of work going on on biopolymers, 0:32:24.956,0:32:27.606 and all that collagen scaffolding [br]and all that stuff. 0:32:27.606,0:32:30.145 It's wild stuff. That's a huge [br]area that's happening. 0:32:30.145,0:32:33.989 [Student 2] - Can you print different [br]materials in the same...? 0:32:33.989,0:32:35.968 There's only one machine [br]that will do that, 0:32:35.968,0:32:39.445 it is the object "Eden" [br]machine, I think? 0:32:39.445,0:32:41.409 They would do multiple [br]materials simultaneously. 0:32:41.409,0:32:44.635 Typically metals are in their own world, [br]polyamides are in their own world. 0:32:44.635,0:32:48.447 There is one machine that would do handful ???,[br]like polymers and elastomers and colors. 0:32:48.447,0:32:51.986 One, two different classes like metals... [br]everyone is waiting for that day. 0:32:51.986,0:32:54.767 That day comes when you can [br]just print anything you can dream up 0:32:54.767,0:32:56.882 and things will be exciting then. 0:32:57.252,0:33:00.955 The reason they can't do gold is that [br]they can print gold, no problem. 0:33:00.955,0:33:08.463 But it would be 240000 dollars to take this [br]titanium out and fill it with gold, fortunately. 0:33:10.183,0:33:14.802 [Student] - I'm just curious about the durability and [br]the strength of the metals, after the printing, 0:33:14.802,0:33:17.512 as the characteristics of other [br]manufacturing things. 0:33:17.512,0:33:20.376 - Yeah, the metals are [br]incredibly strong. 0:33:20.376,0:33:21.977 There are almost entirely ... 0:33:21.977,0:33:26.217 well they are not entirely dense out of the [br]process, but you can heat ??? called HIP, 0:33:26.217,0:33:27.777 which stands for Hot Isostatic Pressure, 0:33:27.777,0:33:30.667 where they heat it to it's near [br]melt point, and a zillion PSI, 0:33:30.667,0:33:35.777 and that would knock out any air molecules, [br]that's like 99.9% solid and dense. 0:33:35.877,0:33:38.608 So if you are doing medical [br]stuff, like knees and hips, 0:33:38.620,0:33:42.540 then you heat it with the HIP process,[br]and then it's as strong as anything. 0:33:42.540,0:33:43.180 Yeah. 0:33:45.587,0:33:49.440 [Studen] - What is the largest [thing] [br]that you can do with that? 0:33:49.760,0:33:52.679 One machine in Belgium called [br]the 'Mammoth machine' 0:33:52.679,0:33:54.864 that would do two meters 0:33:55.105,0:33:58.075 and two meters by one meter [br]by twenty inches or something, 0:33:58.175,0:33:59.941 so there are big [br]machines like that, 0:34:00.041,0:34:02.126 there isn't a lot of [br]demand for big yet. 0:34:02.126,0:34:04.225 [Student] - Would you be [br]able to print food? 0:34:04.615,0:34:08.399 - There are food printers all over the... [br]Yeah, there are a number of those. 0:34:09.059,0:34:12.094 Some examples you find [br]by printing ???, 0:34:12.094,0:34:17.112 There is the cupcake maker, that I think [br]MakerBot has a variation that does that, 0:34:17.112,0:34:22.116 If everyone of you get to Chicago there is a [br]restaurant called moto, M-O-T-O, and it's a... 0:34:22.126,0:34:23.723 You've been there? 0:34:23.723,0:34:28.593 Yeah, It's supposed to be really cool. They print on [br]the tortillas and you eat the menu and it's... 0:34:28.593,0:34:31.265 There are doing a lot of really [br]experimental stuff with... 0:34:31.265,0:34:34.522 We ??? HP Plotters [br]and really cool stuff. 0:34:34.522,0:34:37.612 Yeah, 3D printing food [br]is not far off. 0:34:38.902,0:34:41.994 [Student] - What else can we expect [br]to look in a decade? 0:34:41.994,0:34:45.825 [Scott Summit] - What might come is gonna roll out[br]pretty soon, which I hope it's gonna be really cool. 0:34:47.335,0:34:51.151 I can't say a thing about it. It's really cool. [br]You are just gonna, "Holly shit". 0:34:51.151,0:34:53.629 But I can't say [br]anything about it. 0:34:53.629,0:34:57.383 Beside from that I think professor ??? [br]has some really cool stuff. 0:34:58.543,0:35:03.666 We're gonna expect... I think we gonna expect [br]the cost to go down, the ??? time to go up, 0:35:03.666,0:35:08.336 The think that I told to my students is that [br]the day we start seeing those show up in ???, 0:35:08.336,0:35:12.223 in which I have given a year, [br]before we'll start seeing in ???, 0:35:12.223,0:35:16.163 that's where things get exciting, because [br]we start really democratizing fabrication, 0:35:16.163,0:35:18.663 and we start really inviting [br]everyone to play. 0:35:18.663,0:35:23.353 We already have open source 3D software [br]called Blender 3D and Sketch-Up, 0:35:23.353,0:35:25.266 and those are decent for free, 0:35:25.266,0:35:29.546 and you can create fantastic 3D Models [br]and get them printed. 0:35:29.546,0:35:31.866 So, we can expect a lot of that. 0:35:31.866,0:35:35.546 I think the medical world it's gonna be [br]the big one..."Disabilities" is huge. 0:35:36.512,0:35:39.512 Already now... Here are couple [br]of just fun nuggets 0:35:39.512,0:35:42.512 that you can entertain your friends [br]with that next cartel party. 0:35:43.612,0:35:46.612 So, they're printing their machines, 0:35:46.612,0:35:50.359 like this is a part out of EOS P730 machine, [br]It's wiring harness. 0:35:50.359,0:35:53.939 What's cool about this is that they [br]printed this on their machine. 0:35:54.117,0:35:57.297 So you know, hinge... and everything. 0:35:57.297,0:35:59.807 This is all... This came out from [br]their machine just like it is. 0:35:59.807,0:36:02.637 You know, they can print [br]the hinges altogether. 0:36:02.637,0:36:07.452 So that, that's an example of [br]the machine printing itself. 0:36:16.046,0:36:20.542 Companies are now outsourcing, [br]not to India and not to China, 0:36:20.542,0:36:23.342 they are outsourcing [br]to the customer! 0:36:23.342,0:36:26.573 All you need to do is go [br]to the ATM machine. 0:36:26.573,0:36:30.533 The ATM machine you punch in some numbers, [br]you get your money pressumably, 0:36:30.533,0:36:36.114 but what you've done is taking over a job that [br]previously was done by a teller, inside a bank. 0:36:36.114,0:36:40.734 In fact, we calculate that something like the [br]equivalent of 200 thousand teller jobs 0:36:40.751,0:36:44.241 are what people now make [br]unnecessary by themselves 0:36:44.241,0:36:46.298 by we using the [br]machines ourselves, 0:36:46.298,0:36:51.208 and substituting our work on date [br]for the work of those tellers. 0:36:51.208,0:36:54.198 And the same thing is true in [br]many many other activities, 0:36:54.198,0:36:58.288 where we take on and do for ourselves work that [br]we previously bought in the money economy, 0:36:58.288,0:37:02.491 without taking care of and doing without pay, [br]in what we call the non-money economy. 0:37:02.491,0:37:03.711 or the prosumer economy. 0:37:03.993,0:37:06.341 Prosuming is gonna explode, [br]why is that? 0:37:06.441,0:37:10.344 It's gonna explode because we are [br]creating new technologies 0:37:10.344,0:37:13.306 that individuals can use to [br]do things for themselves. 0:37:13.460,0:37:16.227 So, it used to be, if you took [br]a photograph, 0:37:16.227,0:37:20.937 you then had to send that to Kodak in Rochester, [br]New York, in order to get on paper ??? 0:37:20.937,0:37:25.050 And then you come back to your local drugstore and [br]you pick it up a week later and you have a photograph, 0:37:25.050,0:37:26.701 and you paid for that. 0:37:26.701,0:37:29.646 Now you buy camera, digital camera, [br]and you make your own. 0:37:29.646,0:37:31.985 You know, you get your [br]own pictures. 0:37:31.985,0:37:37.366 So, you are now doing work that used to be [br]done in that Kodak factory, ok? 0:37:37.366,0:37:43.676 We are now developing, and we will be developing, [br]a generation of exceedingly powerful machines 0:37:43.676,0:37:48.086 for work individuals to use to [br]create economic value, 0:37:48.086,0:37:51.379 Even though, again, [br]it's not counted. 0:37:51.379,0:37:54.570 And so, I believe we are going to [br]see a tremendous explosion 0:37:54.580,0:37:57.786 and if you wanna take, if you really [br]want to best take it away, 0:37:57.786,0:38:00.088 think of this in terms [br]of human history. 0:38:00.314,0:38:03.680 At the beginnings [br]of human history, 0:38:03.680,0:38:07.602 everything people did they did for themselves, [br]there was no money economy. 0:38:07.602,0:38:12.454 So you grew your own food, you ate as much as you [br]can get before somebody took it away from you, 0:38:12.454,0:38:15.300 probably the local lord, 0:38:15.300,0:38:18.666 You grew your own food, you sewed your [br]own clothes, you made your own boots... 0:38:18.666,0:38:22.356 So everything was done outside [br]the money economy. 0:38:22.356,0:38:24.139 It was a non-money [br]economy. 0:38:24.139,0:38:28.935 Then gradually money was introduced along with trade, [br]and exchange, and all the things we know about, 0:38:28.935,0:38:31.600 and the assumption [br]that we all made 0:38:31.600,0:38:34.998 for a long long time, and most [br]people make until now, 0:38:34.998,0:38:38.623 is that the non-money economy [br]would eventually just go away, 0:38:38.623,0:38:40.507 that we would all be [br]in the money economy. 0:38:40.507,0:38:42.143 And that's what we [br]should be studying. 0:38:42.143,0:38:47.261 But in fact, the non-money economy is going to get [br]bigger and bigger and bigger instead of going away. 0:38:47.261,0:38:50.241 And again, if you follow this down [br]the line, you are going some... 0:38:50.241,0:38:51.921 you know, developing your own films, 0:38:51.921,0:38:56.351 to having a Fab, or desktop manufacturing [br]unit sitting on your table. 0:38:56.351,0:39:00.974 Now, I don't suppose you are going to build your [br]own car, or your own airplane on your table, 0:39:00.974,0:39:04.294 but you would be capable of producing [br]complex components, 0:39:04.294,0:39:07.524 or other things that you, [br]yourself, want to use. 0:39:07.524,0:39:09.194 Just like bloggers, [br]or you know, 0:39:09.194,0:39:13.750 are using the net to write for free [br]what journalists get paid to do. 0:39:13.750,0:39:16.100 So you have unpaid effort. 0:39:16.017,0:39:18.820 So it's not that we won't have [br]jobs, there will be jobs, 0:39:18.820,0:39:21.086 but there is a parallel [br]hidden economy, 0:39:21.086,0:39:25.604 that must now be recognized, and we better [br]start thinking about how to integrate that 0:39:25.604,0:39:29.592 and to recognize the integration between [br]that and the money economy. 0:39:41.198,0:39:45.218 NANOTECHNOLOGY 0:39:45.418,0:39:48.659 Thick idea behind molecular [br]nanotechnology is, 0:39:48.659,0:39:53.679 it is the physical underpinning [br]for the Singularity. 0:39:53.679,0:39:59.369 Is that which provides the better computer, [br]the hardware for the better computer, 0:39:59.369,0:40:03.719 it provides the hardware for [br]lighter and stronger materials, 0:40:03.719,0:40:06.719 it provides hardware for better [br]medical technology, 0:40:06.824,0:40:10.454 it is a whole bunch of things [br]that are coming where 0:40:10.454,0:40:15.940 we need to have better capabilities, [br]in terms of building things, 0:40:15.940,0:40:19.940 and that is the basic purpose [br]of molecular nanotechnology, 0:40:19.940,0:40:23.971 is to provide the physical basis [br]on which a lot of this stuff 0:40:23.971,0:40:27.732 then proceeds forward and [br]takes advantage of it. 0:40:28.193,0:40:33.453 So "Convergent Assembly" is a way [br]of building big things which is 0:40:33.453,0:40:39.843 probably more amenable [br]to use in manufacturing. 0:40:40.126,0:40:43.773 Convergent Assembly basically [br]starts over here at the left. 0:40:43.773,0:40:46.360 You have teeny tiny things, 0:40:46.360,0:40:49.740 and you double a [br]size at each step. 0:40:49.740,0:40:54.040 If I have molecular parts that are [br]one nanometer in size as inputs, 0:40:54.040,0:40:56.440 I take the one-nanometer [br]parts, I put them, 0:40:56.440,0:41:01.040 eight of them together into a cube, [br]I get a two-nanometer part. 0:41:01.040,0:41:05.990 I take 8 of those, I put them together into [br]a cube, and I get a four-nanometer part. 0:41:05.990,0:41:09.349 At each stage you can [br]double a size, 0:41:09.349,0:41:12.179 and in each step it gets [br]bigger and bigger, 0:41:12.179,0:41:16.209 1, 2, 4, 8,16, 32, [br]in 30 doublings 0:41:16.209,0:41:21.028 you've reached one meter in length, [br]more or less give it or take that ??? 0:41:21.386,0:41:23.413 So using this kind [br]of architecture, 0:41:23.413,0:41:26.575 you can go from atoms [br]and molecules up to 0:41:26.575,0:41:33.087 large objects in 30 steps [br]if you are using binary, 0:41:33.087,0:41:38.087 You don't have to use binary, you could make [br]a factor of 10 bigger each step if you wanted to, 0:41:38.087,0:41:41.937 but for conceptual purposes it's easy [br]to think of it in binary steps. 0:41:41.937,0:41:45.237 And, "voilà"! You can [br]have big things. 0:41:47.229,0:41:50.215 The other implication [br]of this self-replication, 0:41:50.215,0:41:54.465 convergent assembly, you know [br]marvelous architectures, 0:41:54.465,0:41:58.551 is that the manufacturing costs [br]are going to go through the floor. 0:41:59.281,0:42:03.091 Right now we have [br]examples of 0:42:03.091,0:42:05.751 self-replicating manufacturing [br]systems, 0:42:05.751,0:42:07.891 they are called [br]agricultural products! 0:42:07.891,0:42:12.321 Lumber, hay, potatoes. [br]They are cheap. 0:42:13.348,0:42:18.008 A potato is a miracle of [br]biological machinery. 0:42:19.795,0:42:24.195 And yet we think nothing of taking this [br]miracle of biological machinery and 0:42:24.195,0:42:27.195 you know, mushing a little butter [br]and having it for dinner. 0:42:27.195,0:42:30.325 The reason is that it [br]doesn't cost very much 0:42:30.325,0:42:32.824 and it doesn't cost [br]very much because 0:42:32.824,0:42:36.704 the biological molecular machine is gonna [br]make more molecular machines, 0:42:37.029,0:42:40.029 and as we build our own [br]molecular machines, 0:42:40.029,0:42:44.399 those molecular machines we will be able [br]to build more molecular machines, 0:42:44.399,0:42:47.659 and so the manufacturing cost [br]would go through the floor. 0:42:47.659,0:42:53.569 I'm not talking about design costs or licensing [br]cost and patent fees and marketing fees and 0:42:53.569,0:42:58.541 you know, all the other stuff that goes along [br]with making products and selling them. 0:42:58.541,0:43:04.051 But, once you drive the manufacturing cost to [br]the floor, and increase, improve the quality, 0:43:04.051,0:43:09.088 to get every atom in the right place, [br]that's gonna have a big impact. 0:43:09.088,0:43:13.546 So, when you are thinking about [br]the impact of a new technology 0:43:13.546,0:43:16.336 or in particular the manufacturing [br]technology, 0:43:16.336,0:43:21.386 what you wanna think about are [br]the things that can manufacture. 0:43:21.386,0:43:24.386 And you say: "Ok if you can meant... [br]You know, what about computers? 0:43:24.386,0:43:28.077 What about medicine? What [br]about structural elements? 0:43:28.777,0:43:33.157 So the first thing we notice is that if you [br]can get the atoms in the right place, 0:43:33.157,0:43:36.058 you can make really [br]powerful computers. 0:43:36.058,0:43:40.044 Basically you have been watching [br]the computer revolution. 0:43:40.044,0:43:42.551 You've been living the [br]computer revolution. 0:43:42.551,0:43:45.191 Well we've got a couple of orders [br]of magnitude more to go 0:43:45.191,0:43:49.181 and the pace looks like it's[br]gonna keep right up there, 0:43:49.214,0:43:56.674 as we move straight into the molecular [br]logic elements and molecular memories 0:43:56.674,0:44:04.287 So you all ??? get something like 10*24 logic operations [br]per second in a computer the size of a sugar cube. 0:44:04.287,0:44:06.333 That's a lot! 0:44:06.663,0:44:09.483 And 10*21 bits in the same volume. 0:44:09.483,0:44:10.503 I was thinking about that, 0:44:10.503,0:44:12.753 What is 10*21 bits? 0:44:12.753,0:44:15.123 Well, you know a CD? 0:44:15.123,0:44:17.373 CD's are the kind of old [br]technology, I know. 0:44:17.373,0:44:22.013 CD's are, you know, five or six hundred [br]megabytes, something like that. 0:44:22.013,0:44:25.473 If you fill a football stadium with CD's, 0:44:25.473,0:44:28.183 you get about 10*21 bits. 0:44:28.183,0:44:35.128 So, if you take a football stadium of CD's [br]and packed into a sugar lump 0:44:35.128,0:44:37.688 That's pretty much [br]what you've got. 0:44:37.688,0:44:39.728 Computer power [br]is gonna go up. 0:44:39.858,0:44:43.488 Say 10000 Blue Gene [br]supercomputers 0:44:43.818,0:44:47.078 in one little sugar long cube, 0:44:47.078,0:44:49.048 all operating together. 0:44:49.048,0:44:52.448 So today those will cost a [br]whole bunch of money, 0:44:52.448,0:44:55.448 but in the future is gonna be... 0:44:55.448,0:44:56.848 you know, it's a fraction of a pound. 0:44:56.848,0:45:00.398 If you are selling molecular [br]computers by the pound 0:45:00.398,0:45:02.928 And you've got a cubic centimeter, 0:45:02.928,0:45:05.308 that's not very much (laughing), 0:45:05.355,0:45:07.175 pennies for this thing. 0:45:07.175,0:45:10.175 And another miraculous capability. 0:45:10.175,0:45:12.345 This computer will be so powerful, 0:45:12.345,0:45:14.375 that it will be able to run 0:45:14.375,0:45:18.095 Windows 20 20, and it will be snappy. 0:45:19.522,0:45:22.522 Miracles will never cease. 0:45:22.522,0:45:24.422 High-density memory. 0:45:24.422,0:45:26.992 This is a proposal made a couple of years ago 0:45:26.992,0:45:29.582 to have a high density ??? memory, 0:45:29.582,0:45:32.582 you have a surface and the 0:45:32.582,0:45:35.582 zeros and ones are [br]encoded by storing 0:45:35.582,0:45:38.582 fluorenes and hydrogens [br]bonds to the surface, 0:45:38.582,0:45:40.972 and then you have a ??? [br]that moves along, 0:45:40.972,0:45:44.882 and reads out whether it's looking out [br]of fluorine or a hydrogen.[br] 0:45:44.882,0:45:48.202 And you get very high-density [br]memory, if you do this. 0:45:48.202,0:45:53.282 If one atom stores one bit,[br]that's good density, you know? 0:45:53.282,0:45:56.282 That's a pretty good storage density. 0:45:56.512,0:45:59.512 There are bunch of medical capabilities. 0:45:59.881,0:46:02.381 Respirocytes. When you hold... 0:46:02.381,0:46:05.111 when you breathe, you [br]breathe in oxygen, 0:46:05.111,0:46:08.161 and your red blood cell carry [br]the oxygen to your body, 0:46:08.161,0:46:10.181 and when you hold your breathe 0:46:10.181,0:46:14.041 You've only got a little bit of oxygen,[br]both in your lungs and in your tissues, 0:46:14.041,0:46:17.821 Well, If you have artificial red-blood cells [br]that can hold a lot more oxygen, 0:46:17.821,0:46:19.881 you could hold your [br]breath for an hour. 0:46:19.881,0:46:22.121 Which it would be kind of nice. 0:46:22.121,0:46:25.121 And there are some advantages of that, [br]particularly if you have a heart attack, 0:46:25.541,0:46:27.021 Microbivores, 0:46:27.021,0:46:30.801 devices that would [br]detect and ingest 0:46:30.801,0:46:34.521 invaders, pathogens in [br]the circulatory system. 0:46:35.411,0:46:40.511 If you could clear out those infectious diseases[br]more rapidly and more effectively, 0:46:40.701,0:46:45.631 then we could eliminate more [br]diseases more rapidly, 0:46:45.631,0:46:49.193 and cure more infections [br]more efficiently. 0:46:49.333,0:46:52.233 And finally "Chromallocytes"[br]that's a device 0:46:52.233,0:46:55.693 that is more complicated 0:46:55.693,0:46:58.883 but would selectively [br]target individuals cells, 0:46:58.883,0:47:02.923 It will carry as a payload a [br]new set of chromosomes 0:47:02.923,0:47:06.823 and it would remove the [br]chromosomes that were in a cell 0:47:06.823,0:47:11.113 and replace them with a [br]new set of chromosomes, 0:47:11.113,0:47:15.933 pre-programmed to be properly [br]set up for that particular cell. 0:47:16.173,0:47:18.063 So, these are the [br]kind of devices 0:47:18.063,0:47:21.523 that look like they are [br]feasible and are coming. 0:47:21.733,0:47:25.623 We are also going to have[br]better materials. 0:47:26.153,0:47:30.133 So, diamond has a strength-to-weight ratio [br]over 50 times that of steel, 0:47:30.133,0:47:35.013 and as a consequence, if you look [br]at various applications like: 0:47:35.013,0:47:38.683 You know, the Space Shuttle, where pic [br]your favorite earth-space application. 0:47:38.683,0:47:42.093 If you have an improvement [br]of 50 to 1 0:47:42.403,0:47:45.043 in the strength-to-weight ratio... 0:47:45.043,0:47:47.543 And furthermore, the [br]cost dropped to the floor 0:47:47.543,0:47:51.743 because your manufacturing costs are, [br]you know, a dollar a kilogram or something, 0:47:52.156,0:47:55.596 Suddenly a whole bunch [br]of applications open up. 0:47:55.596,0:47:57.559 Low-cost access to space, 0:47:57.559,0:48:00.309 really powerful airplanes, 0:48:00.309,0:48:03.889 very wide strong durable materials... 0:48:03.889,0:48:09.089 And it's not only critical for [br]rockets, and airplanes, 0:48:09.089,0:48:11.149 is also gonna be useful [br]in other applications 0:48:11.149,0:48:15.499 wether is trucks or cars, or ships, or...[br]Even just furniture. 0:48:16.159,0:48:19.969 The hundred pound Cadillac [br]would be kind of nice. 0:48:21.731,0:48:23.831 And space...As I say, space, 0:48:23.831,0:48:27.961 there had been some calculations that looks [br]like Single Stage To Orbit (SSTO) vehicles 0:48:27.961,0:48:30.751 would be dramatically improved, 0:48:30.751,0:48:34.801 given this large improvement [br]in strength-to-weight ratio. 0:48:37.665,0:48:43.095 This device would be 60 Kilogram [br]structural mass, this is... 0:48:43.095,0:48:45.845 Yeah...It's your BW, right? 0:48:45.845,0:48:50.525 You go out and get into your BW, [br]and it weights 60 kilograms... 0:48:50.525,0:48:54.165 Oh, and by the way, when [br]you fuel that up with 0:48:54.165,0:48:57.015 you know, something [br]like 3000 kilogram of fuel, 0:48:57.025,0:48:59.655 most of the weight in [br]this thing is in the fuel, 0:48:59.655,0:49:02.455 If you filled that up [br]3000 kilogram of fuel, 0:49:02.455,0:49:04.825 you can now get into [br]your BW and, you know, 0:49:04.825,0:49:07.567 a friend or some luggage [br]in the back seat, and... 0:49:07.567,0:49:10.637 ZOOM! Ship off in the lower ??? 0:49:10.637,0:49:13.637 And if you run through [br]the calculations and stuff, 0:49:13.637,0:49:18.647 it turns out that it all works and it's been [br]a published article describing this. 0:49:19.087,0:49:22.707 And that's pretty dramatic. [br]That means, among other things, 0:49:22.707,0:49:25.707 that space becomes accessible. 0:49:25.707,0:49:28.237 And all these ideas of... you know... 0:49:28.237,0:49:32.067 colonizing space, visiting [br]space, space hotels, 0:49:32.067,0:49:35.967 all of those look like,[br]"Yeah, there are in the cards". 0:49:35.967,0:49:40.227 What we've been seeing of course is (that) [br]we've been moving in that direction 0:49:40.227,0:49:41.957 and what I'm saying here is... 0:49:41.957,0:49:47.757 Yeah, the capability would gonna continue moving [br]in that direction until we actually achieve it. 0:49:47.757,0:49:53.697 Ok, in diamond, it's simple the fact that if you [br]build diamonds and you can have economics. 0:49:54.302,0:49:57.022 If you can build it [br]inexpensively, suddenly 0:49:57.022,0:50:00.818 what was once a very expensive jewel, [br]becomes a structural material. 0:50:00.818,0:50:03.080 There was a shift like this [br]with aluminum. 0:50:03.080,0:50:05.370 Aluminum used to be [br]very, very expensive, 0:50:05.370,0:50:08.570 until the development of the process [br]for making aluminum 0:50:08.570,0:50:15.520 that suddenly shifted aluminum from [br]being this incredibly valuable material 0:50:15.520,0:50:18.880 that rich people would use for their [br]knives and forks to show off their wealth, 0:50:18.880,0:50:21.680 to a structural material you [br]could use in aeroplanes. 0:50:21.680,0:50:24.480 So we're gonna see a similar shift [br]with regard to diamond. 0:50:24.480,0:50:27.680 And also there are a bunch of [br]materials related to diamonds. 0:50:27.680,0:50:30.680 Stain-resistant pants. [br]There are nano-pants. 0:50:30.680,0:50:35.190 Nano-pants are a revolutionary [br]change. 0:50:35.190,0:50:38.000 They are transformative, 0:50:38.000,0:50:42.130 in fact that I was out of a session where people [br]were talking about nanotechnology, 0:50:42.130,0:50:45.730 and someone mentioned,[br]discussing the nano-pants, 0:50:45.730,0:50:47.160 and the guy in the back [br]of the room said: 0:50:47.160,0:50:51.010 "Oh my gosh. This is gonna utterly [br]change everything." 0:50:51.010,0:50:53.030 "I work for a soap company 0:50:53.030,0:50:55.090 and detergents, and we are [br]gonna be you know, 0:50:55.090,0:50:58.440 if you don't need detergents we [br]are gonna be wiped out." 0:50:58.440,0:51:01.060 Higher standard of living. [br]Ahhh... 0:51:01.060,0:51:04.296 One of the nice things [br]about this technology 0:51:04.296,0:51:07.666 is that it should have [br]a big impact on 0:51:07.666,0:51:10.626 how we interact with [br]the environment 0:51:10.626,0:51:13.326 If you have a better technology, 0:51:13.326,0:51:16.086 then you can have a higher [br]standard of living 0:51:16.086,0:51:19.306 although having a smaller [br]impact on the environment. 0:51:19.306,0:51:23.126 And this is gonna show up [br]in production of food. 0:51:23.126,0:51:26.896 Certainly, if you have better [br]greenhouse capabilities. 0:51:26.896,0:51:29.896 If I can inexpensively build [br]really good greenhouses, 0:51:29.896,0:51:32.186 then that's gonna provide me 0:51:32.186,0:51:35.756 with much more plentiful, 0:51:35.756,0:51:37.826 much lower cost food. 0:51:37.826,0:51:41.026 Nanotechnology comes associated [br]with this concept 0:51:41.026,0:51:43.123 of low cost manufacturing 0:51:43.123,0:51:45.913 and mechano-synthesis, [br]and so forth and so on, 0:51:45.913,0:51:50.513 that some might perceive as dangerous therefore [br]we'll simply disassociate ourselves from it. 0:51:50.513,0:51:55.993 So it is a politically motivated argument [br]that have no technical merit whatsoever. 0:52:20.756,0:52:23.086 People do not have [br]purchasing power, 0:52:23.086,0:52:25.806 and this situation [br]will progress rapidly. 0:52:26.550,0:52:30.701 There are no more ways to employ citizens [br]to maintain their purchasing power, 0:52:30.948,0:52:35.728 because practically humans are less efficient, [br]and thus less productive than machines. 0:52:37.248,0:52:41.859 Technology is so advanced that it can produce [br]an abundance of goods and services 0:52:42.106,0:52:45.479 even if the system tries [br]to restrict production. 0:52:46.390,0:52:49.210 [Fresco] - Yes, Artificial Intelligence [br]will eventually 0:52:49.210,0:52:53.700 replace doctors, lawyers, [br]engineers, intellect, 0:52:53.700,0:52:56.080 and be capable of [br]making decisions 0:52:56.080,0:52:59.080 that humans never [br]dreamed possible. 0:52:59.300,0:53:02.080 There is a neither a communistic, [br]nor socialistic, 0:53:02.080,0:53:05.380 nor free enterprise. No system [br]remain static. 0:53:05.380,0:53:07.460 The kings, most of them are gone. 0:53:07.460,0:53:09.320 And newer systems [br]are coming in. 0:53:09.320,0:53:13.660 No system can free and hold [br]the particular of the system. 0:53:16.510,0:53:18.240 You have to wonder; 0:53:18.240,0:53:20.502 if man can be exempted [br]from work, 0:53:20.602,0:53:24.264 but production still continues, [br]and even improves... 0:53:24.610,0:53:27.905 Why are we still limiting [br]ourselves? 0:53:28.005,0:53:31.335 I think, if you watched the documentary [br]from the beginning, 0:53:31.780,0:53:33.817 you have an answer [br]to this question: 0:53:34.121,0:53:35.973 The system itself. 0:53:36.320,0:53:40.704 Collapse symptoms seem obvious [br]but it's offensive to a human being, 0:53:40.804,0:53:43.292 who considers himself [br]intelligent, 0:53:43.392,0:53:45.470 to wait for the system [br]to collapse 0:53:45.745,0:53:47.266 in order to change [br]something. 0:53:48.447,0:53:50.978 And remember, [br]if we face a crash, 0:53:51.254,0:53:53.722 it will be a disaster [br]for many people. 0:53:54.146,0:53:58.544 They do not see any other solution [br]because they are poorly informed: 0:53:59.435,0:54:02.256 they think that violence is [br]part of human nature, 0:54:02.356,0:54:05.148 they are caught up with [br]money as an abstraction, 0:54:05.248,0:54:08.811 forgetting that it is a unit [br]of measure, like meters, 0:54:08.911,0:54:11.682 and forget that technology [br]is just a tool, 0:54:11.782,0:54:13.924 it’s not something [br]to be scared of. 0:54:14.397,0:54:17.791 These people do not understand [br]that solutions exist, 0:54:18.364,0:54:21.228 so when they face this crash [br]they’ll become angry. 0:54:22.798,0:54:26.354 That's why something [br]must be done now. 0:54:34.027,0:54:36.747 [Fresco] - Most jobs would [br]be phased out, 0:54:36.747,0:54:42.947 and in the next 10 to 15 years most [br]diagnosticians would be phased out. 0:54:42.947,0:54:47.287 All you do it to hold up a skin condition [br]in front of a scanner, 0:54:47.287,0:54:51.927 it will scan your skin condition and [br]give you the latest treatment. 0:54:51.927,0:54:54.937 Most doctors will be phased out, 0:54:54.937,0:54:56.787 the same with lawyers... 0:54:56.787,0:55:00.057 It takes about an hour and a half to... 0:55:00.057,0:55:04.997 to design a computer, that can [br]do all the work a lawyer does. 0:55:04.997,0:55:08.267 So you see most jobs are insecure. 0:55:08.347,0:55:11.717 So the system is self-eliminating. 0:55:11.717,0:55:15.437 You are not to shoot anybody, [br]you don't need a revolution, 0:55:15.437,0:55:19.907 it's called bio-social pressures, [br]that change society. 0:55:19.907,0:55:23.607 Not Fresco, or Stalin, [br]or anybody else 0:55:23.607,0:55:29.427 that change by physical conditions [br]linking to ??? slaves 0:55:29.427,0:55:33.507 It was "conditions" that [br]make slavery inefficient. 0:55:52.991,0:55:55.171 3. QUESTIONS / THE COLLAPSE 0:55:55.171,0:55:58.371 - You must rely on the present system [br]to judge another one. 0:55:58.371,0:56:00.981 - The Collapse symptoms are obvious. 0:56:02.091,0:56:04.561 2. IDEAS / SITUATIONS CREATED /[br]PERPETUATED 0:56:04.561,0:56:07.221 - Most are immoral, insufficient [br]and based on imagination. 0:56:07.221,0:56:10.261 - Most can be solved by abundance [br]and education. 0:56:10.261,0:56:11.527 1. REQUIREMENTS 0:56:11.527,0:56:12.517 - Documents. 0:56:12.517,0:56:13.817 - Educational System 0:56:13.817,0:56:14.597 - Work 0:56:14.597,0:56:17.000 As extremely chaotic as our system is, 0:56:17.940,0:56:21.436 it’s amazing that it has survived so long. 0:56:34.044,0:56:36.934 [Journalist] - How we even get at [br]this mess? Is there any way out? 0:56:36.934,0:56:38.244 [Carl Sagan Laughs] 0:56:38.244,0:56:39.884 [Journalist] - That's for starters. 0:56:39.884,0:56:41.554 [Carl Sagan] - That's a good question. 0:56:41.554,0:56:43.914 Well, we got into the mess by 0:56:43.914,0:56:47.294 by not paying attention and [br]by business as usual. 0:56:48.391,0:56:53.071 Humans have been on this planet for [br]something like a million years. 0:56:53.071,0:56:57.071 And for the vast ??? of that time, [br]things changed extremely solid. 0:56:57.071,0:57:01.601 The population increased very slowly, [br]our technology increased, 0:57:01.601,0:57:03.851 improved but by very slow steps, 0:57:04.001,0:57:06.841 and just recently, you know [br]that's called an exponential, 0:57:06.841,0:57:09.701 it's flat for a long time [br]and then... Boom! 0:57:09.701,0:57:12.801 You suddenly get a huge increase. [br]Increase in population, 0:57:12.801,0:57:15.891 increase in technology, [br]increase in pollution, 0:57:15.891,0:57:21.221 increase in our powers to disturb the environment, [br]to change the planetary environment. 0:57:21.221,0:57:25.191 But we are the same all human [br]beings as we were 0:57:25.191,0:57:27.811 thousand years ago, a hundred [br]thousand years ago. 0:57:28.271,0:57:31.181 Not much has changed [br]with us, and so 0:57:31.181,0:57:33.751 it's very hard for us [br]to catch on, 0:57:33.751,0:57:36.891 that there is a new situation, 0:57:36.891,0:57:39.261 and we have to adapt it. [br]And on the other hand, 0:57:39.277,0:57:41.727 That's one thing we [br]humans are good at. 0:57:41.727,0:57:44.547 To adapt, figuring out. 0:57:44.547,0:57:48.457 We are smart. That's our principal [br]advantage over all the other species. 0:57:48.457,0:57:53.937 I mean we are not faster, stronger, better [br]diggers, we don't fly all by ourselves. 0:57:53.937,0:57:57.937 What we do is figure out, and [br]build because of our hands. 0:57:57.937,0:58:01.887 And so, I think there is certainly a [br]chance of getting out of this mess, 0:58:01.887,0:58:03.657 But not by business as usual. 0:58:03.657,0:58:06.587 Not by the idea that we [br]shouldn't plan ahead. 0:58:06.587,0:58:09.657 Not by the idea anybody can do [br]whatever the hell they want 0:58:09.657,0:58:11.849 and it doesn't affect [br]the environment. 0:58:11.849,0:58:14.039 It has to be a new way [br]of looking at the world. 0:58:14.039,0:58:18.579 A lot of those issues that you [br]raised, are global issues, 0:58:18.579,0:58:22.579 for example, global warming, [br]the greenhouse effect. 0:58:23.209,0:58:27.269 You put gases, like carbon [br]dioxide or CFCs 0:58:27.269,0:58:30.549 or other greenhouse gases into [br]the atmosphere over this country. 0:58:30.549,0:58:34.629 They don't stay over that country. Those [br]molecules don't have passports. 0:58:34.629,0:58:38.099 They do not know about national sovereignty. [br]That's something they never heard of. 0:58:38.099,0:58:41.779 The atmospheric circulation spreads [br]those gases all over the planet. 0:58:41.779,0:58:45.209 And so what one country does, [br]affects all the other countries. 0:58:45.209,0:58:50.449 The solution to these kinds of problems has to be [br]that everybody on Earth works together. 0:58:50.449,0:58:53.809 So there has to be a new way [br]of looking at the future, 0:58:53.809,0:58:58.269 and that is that we are all humans, [br]members of the same species, 0:58:58.269,0:59:02.029 on one fragile little planet. [br]We are all in this together, 0:59:02.029,0:59:04.419 and we have to work together. 0:59:04.419,0:59:10.669 That's kind of the silver line of this crisis. They [br]are forcing us to become a planetary species.
