The Big, Big Monte Carlo

It has taken four centuries for finance to move from point-to-point exchange to today’s system, and that’s taking into account the centuries long shift from a vertically integrated medieval manorial system to the mercantile model.

But think along these lines.

In the long run, does an attorney really have to study patents, write them, edit them or enforce them? Won’t they be better written, modified, sold, bartered, defended and enforced via machine design. Isn’t the better method for discovery simply to let machines talk to each other and explore needs, design solutions, compare notes, share data, test results, and oversee scale-up. That is to say, robotics, visual recognition, remote sensing, enhanced storage, artificial intelligence, and vastly improved bandwidth?

Managed through probability and chance. Which is to say, a quantum approach. Or, the Big, Big Monte Carlo. What probably is good, is good.

With a little human steering at the wheel so long as the human hand is better at navigating via intelligent instinct and pattern recognition to a faster. Think driver at the wheel of a car, which has all kinds of systems we are completely unaware of and which we depend on for our lives. Or think of all the systems in our own bodies, equally important for life itself, that are not subject to conscious recognition.

Which is to say, have you ever found your mind wandering as you drive a car and yet you don’t drive off the road?
