"That horrible feeling where you run into someone and she knows you but you cannot for the life of you remember her name? No problem. You've got the mother of all rolodexes on your face."

I still get nervous about this in application. What happens when people become so dependent on these automatic, no-thought-required processes that one power outage sends everything into chaos? What are the consequences of... HAVING no consequences? Don't remember something? It's saved somewhere. Are we creating a society so hooked on "smart" technology that we ourselves lose the capacity to solve our own problems? To fail? Failure is important. Pretty sure I read that in a Lifehacker article.

Many of you will likely say I'm paranoid. Just some food for thought.
