I walked into campus this morning behind a woman speaking in a very loud voice to no one in particular. Her hands were gesticulating wildly and she sounded very agitated. She was wearing scruffy clothes, but that’s not very strange on college campuses. It wasn’t until I walked past her a few minutes later that I saw the very small bluetooth headset that was mostly hidden by her wild hair. So here’s my take on Arthur Clarke’s famous quotation:
Users of sufficiently advanced technology are indistinguishable from the mentally ill.
You heard it here first.
