Nicolas Carr has an interview in Wired about his upcoming just published book 'The Big Switch' where he is quoted in saying:

Carr: The scariest thing about Stanley Kubrick's vision wasn't that computers started to act like people but that people had started to act like computers. We're beginning to process information as if we're nodes; it's all about the speed of locating and reading data. We're transferring our intelligence into the machine, and the machine is transferring its way of thinking into us.
Time to get the book...
