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.

Nature, and the natural human condition, generates tremendous suffering. We have the means to overcome that, and we should deploy it.

I'm working on artificial intelligence. Actually, natural language understanding, which is to get computers to understand the meaning of documents.

Intelligence is: (a) the most complex phenomenon in the Universe or (b) a profoundly simple process. The answer, of course, is (c) both of the above. It's another one of those great dualities that make life interesting.
Ray Kurzweil
Image
As we gradually learn to harness the optimal computing capacity of matter, our intelligence will spread through the universe at (or exceeding) the speed of light, eventually leading to a sublime, universe wide awakening.

I consider myself an inventor, entrepreneur, and author.

Humans feel deeply the suffering of their friends and allies and easily discount/dismiss the comparable experience of their enemies.

By the 2030s, the nonbiological portion of our intelligence will predominate.
Ray Kurzweil
Image
Take death for example. A great deal of our effort goes into avoiding it. We make extraordinary efforts to delay it, and often consider its intrusion a tragic event. Yet we'd find it hard to live without it. Death gives meaning to our lives. It gives importance and value to time. Time would become meaningless if there were too much of it.

Biological evolution is too slow for the human species. Over the next few decades, it's going to be left in the dust.

We appear to be programmed with the idea that there are 'things' outside of our self, and some are conscious, and some are not.
