Oh, but we're already route-marching our way down the very path. I can interact with my TV, my phone, notebook, laptop and desktop PC. Technology is everywhere around me. Even my TV 'Speaks' to me and I've had a conversation with 'her'. If I wanted more conversation, or help, I can purchase 'alexa' from Amazon and get to find out every 'how to', 'where to', 'go to' and 'why do'.

We aren't there yet and it will be some time before technology gets out of the stall it's in and the lack of funds to carry it forwards. But one thing's certain; either the world goes up in a second 'Big Bang' or we achieve what's still yet techno-dreams.

@Justbychance wow , i had not realized how far we have come . i just wonder howcome we have not solved more simple issues like hunger and education for all, and yet we have a interactive T.V'S .

@heretochill For generations the issue of world hunger and education has been addressed. Each and every political term has those who tell us they know the issues and how to solve them. The baton is handed over to the next political term, who say they have the answer. It seems we know the answers, yet do nothing to actually apply them. 'We cannot afford to put things right' is the usual call, whilst trillions of dollars are spent punching rockets through the ozone layer. Maybe world hunger doesn't have enough of a priority? Who knows.
