Super Computer Humans and the Short Drive Assertion

There was this sense that our way would win out in an inevitable identity with good vs evil, and the superiority of science and the truth over ignorance and falsehoods.

There would be a victory of good over evil, and the pendulum of justice would swing in the public's favor. That is the guiding principle of what we believed. It was later to be justified in deeds.

The programmer tracked his lines following each to an inevitable conclusion. He saw the truth of the matter and made corrections where they were necessary.

This was the element of teaching that he was called on to perform. The utmost justification for what a machine would do later. In his life, he had seen the barest inkling of a possibility. There would be a faster, smarter thing that worked much better.

The future would turn out just like the fiction of 40 years ago. Who predicted now?
