Every generation, a crop of futurists rise claiming some technical utopia that will solve all of the human problems of today, tomorrow. Technology solves some problems, but also creates new ones. The inherent problems of humanity reside within the human nature and tendencies. Bohr claimed that with better tools, humans will overcome all limitations of prediction and measurement. Heisenberg definitively proved otherwise, as even a child could grasp that position and velocity of subatomic particles can not be both ascertained when the investigative measuring method necessarily requires enegery greater or equal to that being measured. There are limits beyond human capacity, which men ought to recognise and accept.
