Open for Debate at Wise-Nano

• Is molecular manufacturing too dangerous to allow?
  
• What limits are needed and can be found?
  
• What might our future look like?

These and other questions are examined in a new set of essays about nanotechnology implications, written by CRN Task Force members and posted online today at Wise-Nano.org:

“Singularities and Nightmares: The Range of Our Futures” - David Brin

“Cultural Dominants and Differential MNT Uptake” - Damien Broderick

“Molecular Manufacturing and 21st Century Policing” - Tom Cowper

“Is AI Near a Takeoff Point?” - J. Storrs Hall

“Nanotechnology Dangers and Defenses” - Ray Kurzweil

“Nanoethics and Human Enhancement” - Patrick Lin & Fritz Allhoff

“The Need For Limits” - Chris Phoenix

“Globalization and Open Source Nano Economy” - Giulio Prisco

“Nano-Guns, Nano-Germs, and Nano-Steel” - Mike Treder
