The economy is dying... therefore humans are about to evolve to a new species?

WTF?

That talk sucked.

You know... you're right.
His talk actually was:

The economy sucks
But don't worry because because a few eggheads have made little robots
Robots are going to revitalize the economy
Oh, and they're about to evolve into a new form of human being.

Still mighty pathetic.
