Text Quotes
A molecular manufacturing technology will let us build molecular surgical tools, and those tools will, for the first time, let us directly address the problems at the very root level (Ralph Merkle Quotes)
Disease and ill health are caused largely by damage at the molecular and cellular level, yet todays surgical tools are too large to deal with that kind of problem. (Ralph Merkle Quotes)
Food is available, but it cannot be shipped into an area, so the people in that area suffer the consequences. (Ralph Merkle Quotes)
Nanotechnology will let us build computers that are incredibly powerful. We’ll have more power in the volume of a sugar cube than exists in the entire world today. (Ralph Merkle Quotes)
Machines built by human beings they will function correctly if we provide them with a very specific environment. But if that environment is changed, they won’t function at all. (Ralph Merkle Quotes)
If we attempt to block the development of new technology, we effectively have ensured that the most responsible parties will not develop them. (Ralph Merkle Quotes)
One of the concepts essential to molecular manufacturing is that of a self-replicating manufacturing system. That concept has lagged behind in its acceptance (Ralph Merkle Quotes)
A potato can grow quite easily on a very small plot of land. With molecular manufacturing, we’ll be able to have distributed manufacturing, which will permit manufacturing at the site using technologies that are low-cost and easily available (Ralph Merkle Quotes)
Food is available, but it cannot be shipped into an area, so the people in that area suffer the consequences (Ralph Merkle Quotes)
The new technologies that we see coming will have major benefits that will greatly alleviate human suffering (Ralph Merkle Quotes)
What we refer to as ‘death’ is just a set of symptoms that have proven resistant to treatment (Ralph Merkle Quotes)
There are certain things that are inherently scarce. For example, there is only a certain amount of beachfront property in California. It is going to be scarce, it is going to be expensive (Ralph Merkle Quotes)
We can grow crops less expensively because molecular manufacturing technology is inherently low cost (Ralph Merkle Quotes)
The laws of physics should allow us to arrange things molecule by molecule and even atom by atom, and at some point it was inevitable that we would develop a technology that would let us do this (Ralph Merkle Quotes)
If we attempt to block the development of new technology, we effectively have ensured that the most responsible parties will not develop them (Ralph Merkle Quotes)
Disease and ill health are caused largely by damage at the molecular and cellular level, yet today’s surgical tools are too large to deal with that kind of problem (Ralph Merkle Quotes)
We see an entire planet which has many limitations (Ralph Merkle Quotes)
We are looking at a future where to a first approximation, everyone is wealthy (Ralph Merkle Quotes)
Nanotechnology is an idea that most people simply didn’t believe (Ralph Merkle Quotes)
Because of technological limits, there is a certain amount of food that we can produce per acre. If we were to have intensive greenhouse agriculture, we could have much higher production (Ralph Merkle Quotes)
One of the issues facing us today is that there are countries where there is a serious lack of resources, the standards of living are very low, and this creates a fundamental unease and discomfort in entire populations (Ralph Merkle Quotes)
The first approximation in this future that we’re looking at is that everyone will be physically well off. They will have a great abundance in material goods, and I think that will soften some of the conflicts we see now (Ralph Merkle Quotes)
One of the things that we can say with confidence is that we will have much lighter, much stronger materials, and this will reduce the cost of air flight, and the cost of rockets (Ralph Merkle Quotes)
Manufacturing takes place in very large facilities. If you want to build a computer chip, you need a giant semiconductor fabrication facility. But nature can grow complex molecular machines using nothing more than a plant (Ralph Merkle Quotes)
Machines built by human beings they will function correctly if we provide them with a very specific environment. But if that environment is changed, they won’t function at all (Ralph Merkle Quotes)
As in any technological revolution, there will be winners and losers. On balance, everyone will come out ahead, although there will be particular companies that will not be able to cope with a new environment (Ralph Merkle Quotes)
Today we see a human population of over 6 billion people, many of whom have serious medical conditions, which either can’t be treated or cannot be treated economically (Ralph Merkle Quotes)
Nanotechnology will let us build computers that are incredibly powerful. We’ll have more power in the volume of a sugar cube than exists in the entire world today (Ralph Merkle Quotes)
If you think the technology is infeasible, you don’t worry about what it might do and what its potential is (Ralph Merkle Quotes)
If you look at the various strategies available for dealing with a new technology, sticking your head in the sand is not the most plausible strategy (Ralph Merkle Quotes)
