2/5 230p THE SINGULARITY IS NEAR
The Singularity is Near
Anthony Waller, Toshi Hoo and Ray Kurzweil, 2010, 79 min, US
2/5 230p, 2/11 7p, 2/13 230p
The Singularity is an era in which our intelligence will become increasingly nonbiological and trillions of times more powerful than it is todaythe dawning of a new civilization that will enable us to transcend our biological limitations and amplify our creativity.
The onset of the 21st Century will be an era in which the very nature of what it means to be human will be both enriched and challenged as our species breaks the shackles of its genetic legacy and achieves inconceivable heights of intelligence, material progress, and longevity. While the social and philosophical ramifications of these changes will be profound, and the threats they pose considerable, celebrated futurist Ray Kurzweil presents a view of the coming age that is both a dramatic culmination of centuries of technological ingenuity and a genuinely inspiring vision of our ultimate destiny.
