    Not at all, and extremely unlikely ever to become so. Even with the wildest assumptions about inventions to come, the math is daunting -- and the inventions would have to be really off the wall before there's even anything to talk about. Scientific American did an article on the problems a few years ago -- sorry I don't have the cite, but it should be available.
