Since human memory is inferior to computer intelligence, why read an entire book to retain knowledge? One year after the fact, we can probably recall less than 1% of all written materials we’ve read.
Computers will read and summarize books for you.
We will use a wolfram alpha type of tool combined with the horsepower of the IBM watson machine to condense any book into the relevant parts you are looking for.
If you’re looking to understand a concept, hypothetically computers should also be superior at explaining connections.
Essentially, humans will want to inevitably merge with a high speed internet enabled computer through an interface like Google Glass.
If you wanted to learn how to do a complicated task like build an electric car or spaceship, it would be far better to have a real-time guide like Google Glass show you exactly how to proceed.
Relying on human memory alone is holding back humanity.
