Hi Scott, have a read of what Tom Foremski thinks about this – I put in the link at the bottom of the post.
It is absolutely true that (potentially) dangerous things lie that way. I also think we can avoid them and there is immense positive potential, but we have to be extremely aware of what could go wrong with this scenario. If people are playing games in reality, the game makers control the world, as Daniel Suarez so vividly portrays.

“Dangerous things that way lie, but it is inevitable that games and what we think of as reality will be merged to an extraordinary degree.”
This concluding sentence is terrible and promotes fear and I don’t know why you’ve said it that way.
Politicians have been playing games of brinkmanship and destruction for centuries. What NEW danger is there in realizing the games we are playing. The cost in human lives has been staggering, but we think it’s “reality” not a game. Games are way more serious than people realize and the fact that the tech community is getting on top of it is hardly surprising. What surprises me is the lack of vision for making games that stop danger AND are fun. I mean to be part of remedying this.
Thanks for writing!
