Why the Future Belongs to the Penguin


Anyone who has read Kurt Vonnegut's novel "Galapagos" will understand that humans have a lot of devolving to do. By the time we devolve to the level of human neo-seals, we should be ready to greet the upwardly evolving penguin on relatively equal terms -- for a short time. But soon afterward, penguins will leave devolving aquatic humans behind as they continue their upward evolution -- with the assistance of bionic penguins and penguin flying robots that will perform tasks that natural penguins find difficult.

You see, the makers of the Terminator franchise have it all wrong. The future does not belong to humanoid robots. Sorry. It's penguins all the way down the line.
