9781847928290: The Singularity is Nearer: When We Merge with AI

Synopsis

THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER

The legendary oracle of technological change explains how AI will transform our species beyond recognition.

‘The best person I know at predicting the future of AI’ BILL GATES
'Essential reading to understand our exponential times' MUSTAFA SULEYMAN
'Fascinating . . . raises the most profound philosophical questions' YUVAL NOAH HARARI

By the end of this decade, AI will exceed human levels of intelligence. During the 2030s, it will become ‘superintelligent’, vastly outstripping our capabilities and enabling dramatic interventions in our bodies. By 2045, we will be able to connect our brains directly with AI, enhancing our intelligence a millionfold and expanding our consciousness in ways we can barely imagine. This is the Singularity.

Ray Kurzweil is one of the greatest inventors of our time with over 60 years’ experience in the field of Artificial Intelligence, whose long-range predictions about the rise of the internet, AI and bioengineering have all borne out. In this visionary, fundamentally optimistic book, Kurzweil explains how the Singularity will occur, explores what it will mean to live free from the limits of biology and argues that we can and will transform life on Earth profoundly for the better.

'The greatest oracle of our digital age' PETER H. DIAMANDIS, founder of XPRIZE
'Curious about the future? Read this book' VINT CERF, Chief Internet Evangelist, Google

About the Author

Ray Kurzweil is the field of AI’s longest-serving expert, the inventor of numerous world-changing technologies and the author of several best-selling books. Many of his inventions, such as text and speech recognition, and vocal and musical synthesizers, have enabled breakthroughs in communication between humans and computers. In 2005 he published The Singularity Is Near, in which he first predicted that humans would be transformed by merging with computers. It has since inspired several major films, hundreds of books and thousands of articles. He is a Principal Researcher and AI Visionary at Google, the recipient of the US National Medal of Technology and Innovation, one of the nation’s highest honours, and a member of the US National Inventors Hall of Fame.
