Sigh, you completely missed my point. There is technology which makes the human organism better and there is technology which just acts a crutch. Bicycles fall into the former category but not cars. Coursera/Udacity fall into the former category but Google glass does not.
Read "The Shallows."
Also, we are nowhere near the Singularity and all this tech will just make us intellectually obese in the end. Don't you agree that a car while making you faster in one sense does not really make you faster in another sense?
Once again, we don't have artificial legs which we can seamlessly integrate into our bodies to actually make us faster. We don't have chips that can integrate with our brains seamlessly. I don't see that happening anytime soon.
