Nicholas Carr on his new book The Big Switch. Leading up to SES New York in March 2008, Nicholas Carr takes the hot seat again on The Big Switch with Greg Jarboe in Boston.

The two discuss Carr's new book, The Big Switch, and take some broader sweeps at what the expansion of centralized data storage and transmissibility means for human society and the brain.

  • Intelligence is a sub-set of consciousness but not the other way around. No one anywhere has been able to simulate consciousness in a computer program. That's what the Turing Test was really about; to pass you have to be convinced that an intelligence consciousness is responding to you on the other side of the keyboard/terminal.Google for all its billions and hype has yet to do that. Where is it, guys? You are the best and brightest!

  • ...welcome to the new era of "information", Where the intangible becomes important and expensive than the tangible. Is this going to awake also "spirituality" among the many materialistic? Haha...
