As computers continue to seek more data on human behavior and more accurate models of humans, Wright predicts that they'll begin to compare notes.

Hive minds sound relatively harmless when they're toiling away at tailor-made videogames for human leisure time. But in Wright's future, computers will progress towards something far more powerful and inherently alien.
