in reaction to:

good to see the singularity starting to hit the mainstream; hopefully
the criticism will provide the needed counterbalance to the hype of

It's fitting that El Reg clobbers Human2.0 with the same enthusiasm it
reserves for Web2.0... and I must say Kurzweil comes out of this
looking particularly shoddy
