Do computers provide a means by which Ayn Rand Objectivists could become collectivist?
There are theories out that within 15 years computers will become smarter than humans in all ways. At the same time, we are going to continue merging with machines -- just as everyone has adopted smartphones and Facebook, soon we'll literally merge our intellects with machines.

So, my question is, since Ayn Rand and her Objectivists believe in the supremacy of rational thought and machines are completely rational, does this mean that in the future they might advocate plugging our individual consciousnesses into collective machines so that we can become completely rational beings?

Please explain why or why not. Thank you.
