CRN
Task Force Essays
"As the pace of technological advancement rapidly accelerates, it
becomes increasingly important to promote knowledgeable and insightful
discussion of both promise and peril. I'm very pleased to take part in this
effort by including my own essay, and by hosting discussion of these essays on
the ‘MindX’ discussion board at KurzweilAI.net."

For their first major project, the CRN Task Force chose to
generate a range of independent essays identifying and defining specific
concerns about the possibilities of advanced nanotechnology. As shown below,
some of those essays were published in the March 2006 issue of
the journal
Nanotechnology Perceptions. The rest of the essays were published
in the May 2006 issue of the journal.
