With the advent in computer technology, will we ever stop learning or upgrading ?
Every minute and every second, thousands and even millions of computer hardware and software are being developed around the world. Is there any way to stop the progression ?

no

I certainly hope not! It is the nature of humans to want to learn…to create … and to improve.
Good luck,

Progress is a fact of life. You can’t stop it.
If you try then the human race will probably suffer – badly.

Nope. And I don’t want to. Technology has certainly exploded the past 100 years, and its the best thing in the world.

The progression keeps me employed.

I do not think so. If there was, we would have stopped when Alexander Graham Bell invented the phone! Someone would have said that this was the ultimate and called for a stop.
What is happening is that, we have to go forward and discover more and push the borders of knowledge further afield. It is this new knowledge that helps a sick child get better and a man with no legs have a chance to walk again.
Most of the time, we hear only negative things which are highlighted and bandied about.
Imagine a day when a small chip can be implanted in a person’s broken spinal cord and he can walk again! Isn’t it an achievement worth striving for? Imagine further, if it were possible to turn off a faulty gene in person we would not have people having to suffer Alzheimer’s disease, Huntington’s Chorea and a host of others.
All these improvements come with new ideas and means.
The question here should be ; Is there a need for an ethical policy? Without an ethical policy, I think people can get away with cloning anyone, spreading diseases, and simply creating systems that become a mind control or destruction avenue.
