What Will Change in 2015?





Charles Lamb on December 31 1821:


“...The last day of 1821. I don’t know how it is, but I grow less reflective as I get older. I seem to take things as they come without much care. In early life, everything being new excites thought. As nothing is new when a man is 35, one thinks less...”
John Gray:

"...Bio-engineering and artificial intelligence are certain to be developed and used for military purposes, and any post-humans that emerge will probably be locked in combat with one another. Chronically divided, the new species will no more be masters of the earth or themselves than we are today..."


One of my favorite cartoonists Zachary Kanin drew this in 2012

 
This year he drew this in August 2014 for The New Yorker
