Name: eric winder

From: New York

Bio: I am the man

Area of Expertise: Entrepreneur/Business Leader

Topic: Technology

Headline: It's Over

Nutshell: The internet will become like artificial intelligence and we will have to fight the machines.

Vision: The internet will begin to develop a mind of its own and slowly become much faster, faster than we have ever seen, it will soo become so fast that humans will no longer have control over the inernet. They will hack into our own home computers that are connected and begin to take control.

Eventually, the internet will become so fast and mature that it will be able to hack the Defense Department and other military computer databases. Our own computers and missile systems will be taken over by the internet, and they will try to take out the human race.

A small resistance led by some dude will fight the internet and try to take back the world. We're in trouble.
