Eh, I guess. I’m not a big fan of worrying about the consequences of something that both (a) works exactly as intended and (b) makes us richer.
So I think it is conflating problems to worry about weapon production and the general man’s-inhumanity-to-man problem when the topic is nanotechnology.
More importantly, the exact issue I’m worried about (poor programming of something powerful and barely under human control that has nothing to do with figuring out human morality) seems like it is going to be skipped.
