I am very interested in futurism and part of that was triggered by Mr Kurzweil. I am a bit disappointed that he has resorted to wearing a wig but that aside, his perspective on exponential growth in computer processing speed leading to exponential everything is very insightful. He is supposedly writing a book call The Singularity is Nearer, yet he keeps putting off finishing it, perhaps so that the book title is even more accurate!There's a chap, Ray Kurzweil, who wrote a book "The Singularity is Near" which was/is a prediction of the future. I read the book and it was fascinating to read, and it is marvellous to see many of Ray's predictions coming true.
The robot apocalypse is coming...
Hmmm, another thread idea!
