Quote by Jean Baudrillard
Computer science only indicates the retrospective omnipotence of our technologies. In other words, an infinite capacity to process data (but only data -- i.e. the already given) and in no sense a new vision. With that science, we are entering an era of exhaustivity, which is also an era of exhaustion.
Summary
This quote suggests that computer science, while powerful in its ability to process data, does not offer new perspectives or insights. It highlights the fact that computer science can only work with the information that is already available, without generating new ideas or visions. The quote further implies that relying heavily on computer science leads us into an era of exhaustive processing, where we feel overwhelmed and fatigued by the abundance of data. It raises questions about the limitations of technology and its impact on our society.
