Final Step – Inspired by Nature Individual molecules will self-assemble into self-replicating organic grids capable of information processing 2.
Organic Computers: 1. Introduction – Basic Concept 2. How It Works 3. Dangers for Today and Tomorrow 4. Conclusions
Concerns for Today Health and environment related concerns are based on previous experience not on actual proof. Research Responsably 3.
Concerns for Tomorrow Major misconception 3.
Organic Computers: 1. Introduction – Basic Concept 2. How It Works 3. Dangers for Today and Tomorrow 4. Conclusions
Conclusions Supramolecular chemistry can offer an elegant solution for the development of nanotechnologies. The human brain only has a short time left as the smartest thing on the planet. People should stop being afraid of potential dangers and start being enthusiastic about potential benefits. 4.
