Ray Kurzweil tells us about his vision of the Singuarlity—a point around 2045 when computers will acquire full-blown artificial intelligence and technology will infuse itself with biology. His theories have all sorts of supporters, detractors, and critics, but do you even remember what life was like before three-year-olds had cell phones and you actually had to remember facts instead of relying on the internet? That was only 10 years ago. If Kurzweil is right, we'll have supercomputers more powerful than every human brain on the planet combined within a few decades.

  • COnsider for a moment that during the rein of the Spanish Queen Isabella, people still woke up in the morning, each their breakfast, talk to each other about the laterst news, worried about war, thought Taxes were too high and spent more money than they needed on being soically acceptable. This has not changed. This will never change. More process power will mean we do all of this, just with more still. Nothing more.

  • As technology become more able to mimic & out perform the human brain, it is vital that humanity become more humane. If we don't destroy ourself with a petty wars & corporate corruption the Singularity will be the greatest event for humanity as long as we combine science with love & liberation for all.
