It makes so much sense as well. Throughout our evolution (and in fact the evolution of all primates) social communication was directly correlated with our brains processing power. So we could certainly see some correlation in the future with the number of people we can communicate with and our brain's capability. I really liked when Samantha told Theodore that she needed to talk to Alan "post-verbally". Ben Goertzel has actually written a few articles about the potential for post-verbal communication and what that would be like.Damn I love following that train to it's logical extreme too.
