Clearly the best short story I have read in years! It articulates many of my thoughts and ideas better than I ever could. I recommend it to all my online friends interested in cybernetic systems theory, self improvement, society, or the future in general. JUST READ IT !

From the page: "Stanford's artificial intelligence system learned how to fly by "watching" the four-foot-long helicopters flown by expert radio control pilot Garett Oku. "Garett can pick up any helicopter, even ones he's never seen, and go fly amazing aerobatics. So the question for us is always, why can't computers do things like this?" Coates said.
Computers can, it turns out."
From the page: "Meet Gordon, probably the world's first robot controlled exclusively by living brain tissue."
Increase the number of neurons a thousand times and we might even have a sentient cyborg from scratch. Yah!
