For the futurists out there (or just everyone who wants to live a bit longer than their four score), here’s a worthwhile link to check out. The recent Singularity Summit held at Stanford now has a website filled with audio and writings from the conference (and soon there will be video as well). Featuring names like Ray Kurzweil, Eric Drexler and Cory Doctorow, the conference was dedicated to exploring the ‘Singularity‘ – an event horizon in technological development when “humans as they exist presently won’t be the driving force in scientific and technological progress, eclipsed cognitively by posthumans, AI, or both.” Good to see the audio freely available, kudos to the conference organisers!
