Human Progress Varies with the Area of Engineering
In computers, the speed of development is rapid, exponential and increasing. Double about every 12
months.
Hard disc drives were doubling every 8.5 months when reported at Future's conference in 2004.
Drugs must not kill anyone even if they save 20 times as many people as they kill. See moral machine
under Humbot.
As a result drug development is quite slow. To the extent that drug testing can be made into an
information technology, such as if a human could be simulated and testing could be by simulation, then
the process should speed up to the rapidity of computer evolution.
