It's clear you're not familiar with Kurzweil's work in AI (or his background in general). He's written multiple books on the topic over multiple decades, including the seminal "The Singularity is Near". He's devoted his life to the study of this field.

- zaybqp 5y agoThank you for enlightening us with the new knowledge of this wonderful luminary. I have learned so much from these URLs. Do you have any more recommendations on what we should read next? I find myself deeply enthralled by his fascinating claims and I want to seek out more of his teachings.

My instincts say no. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_10%25_Solution_for_a_Healthy_Life https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_10%25_Solution_for_a_Healt... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fantastic_Voyage:_Live_Long_Enough_to_Live_Forever https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fantastic_Voyage:_Live_Long_En...
- AnimalMuppet 5y ago> It's clear you're not familiar with Kurzweil's work in AI (or his background in general). Because it's impossible that I could be familiar with his work and still think that he's full of it? (At least on AI and the Singularity.) That sounds like you've had a bit too much Kurzweil Koolaid...
