Great post Andrei!

As a person who's worked with computers most of his adult life, believe me when I say the last thing that I would want is a society run by a computer. The people at Zeitgeist and the Venus Project really have not a clue what they're talking about. Computers aren't smarter than we are, they're very dumb in fact, and they can never be any smarter than the humans who program them and they don't have access to nay more information about the economy than we do. The best we can hope for is a computer model based on the price system, and even then, the computer probably won't make better decisions than we can.
