The Internet

[Elios]

Let's just say...for the sake of argument, the internet could never be destroyed. It will continue to grow, for hundreds of years, new technology and computers will be developed, so on and so forth. The Internet will become an entity, somthing that is part of our everyday lives (Not that it isn't already...)
OUr grandchildren, and great-grandchildren, will become part of a society that thrives on the use of the internet.

In your opinion, what would be the concequences of this senario? If the Internet became somthing, like a living creature (Or, extremely advanced AI), what would happen to the world, 200 years from now?

click on Death by Machine in my profile, it will answer you

[jimnoff]

slowly
very slowly
we'd turn into a race of detestable monsters who eat our babies
and poop out stop signs
i have seen this
its crazy because you cant go anywhere since there are stop signs everywhere telling you to stop

Nuclear war + humanity = no internet.

But if we avoid that, then yes it will continue to thrive.

MATRIX

Our online lives may replace real live entierly

[DungeonMasterClock]

That's a really deep question...

-Bad Outcome-
My guess is that technology will thrive in certain areas, and other locations will become desolate waste zones. Eventually, the world will turn into a single empire, ruled by the internet. You cannot defy it, and you cannot escape. Your grandchildren will become part of a communistic society. They will live to serve the internet.

-Good Outcome-
WIth the help of our trusty internet, and a few good political figures, the world will realize the condition our planet it in. Over several years (+100), Superior technology will be created to reverse the damage done to the planet, and eventually heal it to near perfection. With a thriving planet, the Internet and it's people shall live in peace.

-Random Outcome-
Newgrounds vs. 4Chan. Epic battle between Internet users.

All of humanity will be encased in machines linked to a virtual reality internet. Machines will regulate feeding by IV tubes, babies will be born my forcing unconcious people's bodies to mate, and upon the babies birth it will automatically be put into a pod and sent into the internet.

Sounds good to me.

[PanzerKorpse]

Nah, it'll die. I'll invent something better.

Something.... better than the internet you say?

Why yes I say something better than the internet it is

[Lapse]

You should watch the anime: "Denno Coil"

Its sort of like that. Cyberspace integrated atop the real world.

[2clips]

i see 2 outcomes possible.

100 years from now the internet will decide to end all man kind, with a combonation of amazing porn and halarious youtube videos no-one will have the will to leive their house... eventually we will all die of starvation.

senario 2, with access to years of research at just the click of a mouse aids,cancer,war,racism,black people all cured from the face of the earth.

i like the second one alot better

[Xaxrox]

Nuclear misadventure.

[Lizzardis]

I think that the internet will become so big, and scientist will create a computer so powerful that it will take over human life as we know it, everyone/thing will be run by a computer with a proccessor chip in there brain, and the world will go corrupt!!! and IMPLODE!!!

[Haoie]

A Ghost in the Shell esque sort of world.

Already you're seeing people favouring cyberspace over real world activities.

[SILKS]

internet is for porn.
