Math Reality Rises Up and Bites You

From a TED talk in July 2011...



The bit around 09:00 in the video where he talks about "the physics of culture" and worries about those algorithms crashing is really, really scary.

The future belongs to the algorithms... and we are hanging on tight hoping we are lost as the future races away.
