More quotes by Ray Kurzweil
Time would become meaningless if there were too much of it.
Ray Kurzweil
When I was a student at MIT, we all shared one computer and it took up a whole building. The computer in your cell phone today is a million times cheaper and a thousand times more powerful. What now fits in your pocket 25 years from now will fit into a blood cell and will again be millions of times more cost effective.
Ray Kurzweil
As you go out to the 2040s, now the bulk of our thinking is out in the cloud. The biological portion of our brain didn't go away but the nonbiological portion will be much more powerful. And it will be uploaded automatically the way we back up everything now that's digital.
Ray Kurzweil
We'll be able to have very intelligent, little robots with computers going inside our bloodstream, keeping us healthy from inside, destroying cancer at the level of one cell.
Ray Kurzweil
When you talk to a human in 2035, you'll be talking to someone that's a combination of biological and non-biological intelligence.
Ray Kurzweil
Supercomputers will achieve one human brain capacity by 2010, and personal computers will do so by about 2020.
Ray Kurzweil
Information defines your personality, your memories, your skills.
Ray Kurzweil
Biological evolution is too slow for the human species. Over the next few decades, it's going to be left in the dust.
Ray Kurzweil
Science fiction is the great opportunity to speculate on what could happen. It does give me, as a futurist, scenarios.
Ray Kurzweil
If we could convert 0.03 percent of the sunlight that falls on the earth into energy, we could meet all of our projected needs for 2030.
Ray Kurzweil
People talk philosophically, Oh, I don't want to live past 100.' You know, I'd like to hear them say that when they're 99.
Ray Kurzweil
We appear to be programmed with the idea that there are 'things' outside of our self, and some are conscious, and some are not.
Ray Kurzweil
Inventing is a lot like surfing: you have to anticipate and catch the wave at just the right moment.
Ray Kurzweil
Play is just another version of work
Ray Kurzweil
In 1999, I said that in about a decade we would see technologies such as self-driving cars and mobile phones that could answer your questions, and people criticized these predictions as unrealistic.
Ray Kurzweil
By the 2030s, the nonbiological portion of our intelligence will predominate.
Ray Kurzweil
The fate of the universe is a decision yet to be made, one which we will intelligently consider when the time is right.
Ray Kurzweil
A lot of movies about artificial intelligence envision that AIs will be very intelligent but missing some key emotional qualities of humans and therefore turn out to be very dangerous.
Ray Kurzweil
Death gives meaning to our lives. It gives importance and value to time. Time would become meaningless if there were too much of it.
Ray Kurzweil
By the time we get to the 2040s, we'll be able to multiply human intelligence a billionfold. That will be a profound change that's singular in nature. Computers are going to keep getting smaller and smaller. Ultimately, they will go inside our bodies and brains and make us healthier, make us smarter.
