A Bad Week For Those Who Deny Molecular Nanotechnology or Accelerating Technology or the Tech Singularity
Abstract:
This weeks news makes it a tough week to deny technology acceleration or an eventual technological Singularity. It is looking far more certain that a very powerful three dimensional DNA/RNA/Protein Nanotechnological capability is emerging and that nanotechnology will be integrated with carbon nanotubes and nanoparticle metal and can be used to bootstrap precise control and structures with carbon and metals:
DNA wrapped carbon nanotubes for artificial tissue
Two ways to make large scale three dimensional structures out of DNA
One from Harvard, which appears more flexible and robust.
DNA boxes from Danish Aarhus university
DNA used to assemble sheets of metal nanoparticles, which could be the basis of nancircuits and could be integrated with the 3D nanotech.
Large scale 3D nanotech with DNA that is integrated with carbon nanotubes, diamond nanorods, nanoparticle metal, graphene and other DNA compatible chemistry.
