Microcosmic God, by Theodore Sturgeon

I just wanted to mention an interesting story that I have been thinking about lately. (There are a couple of YouTube videos up of people reading it out loud, by the way). First published n 1941, it's about a scientist who creates artificial life, and accelerates its development until he has his own little artifical creatures who evolve to become intelligent, then eventually they become smarter than humans. As AI develops, I think about that story sometimes. In some ways it just helps me to imagine the dangers and problems that could arise from creating things that are more intelligent than we are, and which may or may not be essentially sympathetic to us. Had to share.
