Is technology able to build it?

We definitely have the technology, but there is more to consider in its wide-spread use. We have to look at the political and economic ramifications of not needing gas engines. I'm sure tax payers don't want to see a hike due to now-jobless gas station attendants, gas truck drivers, refinery and drill workers collecting unemployment checks for min. six months. The technology has to be gradually introduced so it won't shock the system... :)

if i am visualizing correctly what you want ,i suspect you will have to build it.aren't you going to waste a lot of space?

I'm not sure, but I remember reading somewhere that it can be done.\n\nK

YES YOU CAN.\n\nBut like Gadget, I haven't figured it out yet.

ummmmm.....what is it that you're trying to engineer?  cars, trains, software, buildings?

No.  \n\nYou need to be able to describe how to make/use/do your invention in sufficient detail so that someone else can make/use/do it.  And there must be a reasonable belief that it will actually do what it is purported to do.

technology can support all of that.

Don't know, but it is possible.

i dont think so but its possible because the government doesnt release those news so fast there going to test em and send em in the military. the AI might not yet availble to the internet but availble to the military, but since i been reading halo past few weeks the AI in tat book is so damn smart and it keeps growing smarter

That doesn't exist. There is, however, nanotechnology. Read all about it...

Sure its possible, but not likely

Anythings possible.  But, it's more likely that we invented it on our own.  Mainly because computers have a fairly traceable technological evolution.  They started simply and have become progressively better over the years.

I would INVEST into that technology, yes!

No, but that may be based on the literal translation of the word "everything"!\n\nOne way to answer that is to look back over the last 10 years and see where have we been and how far have we gone.  \n\nTechnology is moving at a faster pace than all other areas.  However, it is not really moving that fast.  \n\nRich companies and rich leaders are getting richer because they have found a secret.  The secret is to let out a little new stuff every two to three years to cause mass buying of their product.  They leave some errors "BUG" in them so that people are not completely satisfied and must buy the update when it comes out.  The process keeps repeating itself over and over.  Why put out a great product if you can sell a good product several times within the next 10 years?!  No, we will not be that much farther a head in 10 years, but over time we will have computers will have evolved to do a lot more.  \n\nWe will have something like a computer/TV/radio/telephone/home security/home monitor/ whatever all built into one thinking computer!  How long it takes is up to the Rich guy in Washington State!  He did not become the riches guy in the world by being dumb!

I'll say this much, there will always be structures and structures that need repair/modification and they will always be wherever you are. Electrical infrastructure is one thing that will be around for a long time, but electrical design and electronics design are getting offshored big time. In the 70's thru early 80s my part of the country was huge in defense contracts, then a downturn and tons of EEs out of work. Then telecom boomed and they became "valuable assets" due to the "shortage". Then telecom busted and EEs were on the street again and the recovering is slow in coming. Nanotech is supposed to be the next big thing around here, who knows when it will bust

Sounds great. Except we lack the technology, know-how, resources, funding, interest, et cetera. So, good luck with that.

Probably so, but it would have taken a lot longer.  It's a technology that many people use and is definitely a large revenue source for many companies.  It might have taken a slightly different form or shape than it is today, but the ease of global communication is really something that many companies would have invested the R&D for once they realized something like that was possible.
