The First AI War Is Coming
‘Much has been written about Ray Kurzweil’s prediction of “The Singularity” where advances in artificial intelligence (AI), genetics, robotics, and nanotechnology would allow man to merge with machines, with the resulting god-like cyborgs living forever.
The 2009 documentary Transcendent Man introduced the concept to the public.
Kurzweil’s accomplishments as inventor and futurist, as well as his current position as a director of engineering at Google, has given the idea credibility in scientific and academic circles.
Google seems to be following Kurzweil’s vision of the future as it has been rapidly acquiring the most promising robotics and AI companies.’
