The Singularity is Near
Futurists hypothesize about a coming singularity; a time in the future where machine intelligence will explode, accelerating technological progress at a rate so quickly that the future will be radically different from today. The human brain cannot even begin to comprehend the sophistication of this future.
The release of the Freelancer API brings this connection between man and machine even closer. For over 60 years, humans have programmed computers through software and for the first time a sophisticated programming interface exists for humans.
