Fast Company has a very good interview with Ray Kurzweil on the
future, life, death, immortality, artificial intelligence, and the
deployment of transhumanist technologies. My favorite quote from the
interview is: FC: What would you like to be doing in 100 years?
Kurzweil: I do have a goal of being a successful 25-year-old female
rock singer.
In this expanded interview transcript, inventor Ray Kurzweil discusses
birth, death, and the potential offered by non-biological thinking
processes. Kurzweil also talks about his quest for personal
immortality, his new book, predicting the behaviour of the stock
market, and short-term developments in IT. But the main focus of the
talk is the development and imminent deployment of transhumanist
technologies. Read the complete interview on the Fast Company website:
