Out of Control is a summary of what we know about self-sustaining systems, both living ones such as a tropical wetland, or an artificial one, such as a computer simulation of our planet. The last chapter of the book, "The Nine Laws of God," is a distillation of the nine common principles that all life-like systems share. The major themes of the book are:

As we make our machines and institutions more complex, we have to make them more biological in order to manage them.

The most potent force in technology will be artificial evolution. We are already evolving software and drugs instead of engineering them.

Organic life is the ultimate technology, and all technology will improve towards biology.

The main thing computers are good for is creating little worlds so that we can try out the Great Questions. Online communities let us ask the question "what is a democracy; what do you need for it?" by trying to wire a democracy up, and re-wire it if it doesn't work. Virtual reality lets us ask "what is reality?" by trying to synthesize it. And computers give us room to ask "what is life?" by providing a universe in which to create computer viruses and artificial creatures of increasing complexity. Philosophers sitting in academies used to ask the Great Questions; now they are asked by experimentalists creating worlds.

As we shape technology, it shapes us. We are connecting everything to everything, and so our entire culture is migrating to a "network culture" and a new network economics.

In order to harvest the power of organic machines, we have to instill in them guidelines and self-governance, and relinquish some of our total control.

由渥卓斯基兄弟拍摄的“骇客帝国”得益于一系列的哲学,思想和艺术。灵感来自各种不同的激发,所以对那些想要深究骇客帝国哲学而刨根问底寻找后的这些灵感来源的“骇客迷”们,这的确是一次“愉快的挑战”。虽然激发了渥卓斯基兄弟的可能有无数本书,但其中很多我们大概永远不...

《失控》读完半个月了。很久没在看完一本书之后沉吟这么久。并不仅仅因为书写的好,更因为机缘巧合:这书恰恰补上了长久以来我世界观拼图里缺的那一块。 号称学了生物专业,生物化学、分子生物学之类早忘得一干二净,就算当初也没记住过多少。聊以慰藉的,是对生命有一个还算宏...

《失控》的厉害在于,写于1994年,现在看来仍然像是预言。一开始是社会学,后来是管理学,最后发现也可以解读为恐怖科幻小说,里面又涵盖了数学、物理、化学、计算机、生物、控制、混沌等等各种基础与前言学科。 好,现在我就按照恐怖科幻的路子,解读一下。科学素养有限,描述...

If scientists debunk truth like this, sooner or later we are going to believe in nothing. This book completely smashed my faith in intelligence, the origin of life, and pretty much everything else. I guess secretly, I am just another anthropocentric narcissist.
