Kurzweil never said the technological singularity would occur by 2029. He said 2029 would be the date by which AGI (Artificial General Intelligence) would occur. Kurzweil said the technological singularity would occur by 2045. He's been consistent about those two dates for many decades.

He is Rick and Morty and everything on the show is just in Ray Kurzweils head. I'll give you a moment to process that. We've a long way to go and I need to be sure you're with me here. So Ray and his basement. What lies here in waiting? That gets tricky because Ray isn't just an average Joe with a house. He is extremely wealthy with multiple properties around the world. But lets just imagine where Ray is right now is his home. What's in that basement? A wine cellar! Sorry, I may have suggested it was more sinister.

Just a quick question...how do you suppose an individual would be able to gather such information? I'm assuming, but correct me if I'm wrong, wouldn't you need to complete some sort of research and development (R&D) to do so ? And wouldn't you want to obtain the newest, most updated, and most accurate information possible in the shortest amount in time? And also in the most efficient manner? One word.....MONEY According to you, he was so committed to his, "quest for information", that he purposely diverted his efforts into research and development and writing books. Seriously though, if he was so committed to this mission then why would he have not capitalized on all of his secret genius inventions in order to facilitate even more and more research. He physically doesn't even have to be there to collect his capital gains or provide oversight... Information, especially world changing information, is NOT CHEAP and by him not maxing out his potential revenue gains (in order to fund more research and gain new information) would be a complete disservice to himself and everyone involved. That is business/economics 101. It's quite evident this man does not possess more secret knowledge or information compared to the public but he will lead you to believe he has all the answers.

I get it." And Ray still has to do the entire explanation word for word. Neil honestly was doing things many might be tempted to do when talking to Kurzweil; simply to try to get him to say something different. Or even differently. The man has zero improvisation in his explanations. If it weren't for Neil's wisecracks, I would not be sure I hadn't seen this before. Word for ever-loving word.

Ray Kurzweil is talking about technological advances that probably wont be possible for another 80 - 200 years because of the difficulty of calculating the human aspect (Not all humans react the same way) Ray is putting unreal time lines on these technological advances (13 years) which makes him sound ignorant and arrogant among the science community, Not only that but i wonder how many people would sign up for something like this? What happens if something go's wrong? One thing about Neil deGrasse Tyson is that if you could provide evidence to him that there is real worth while science here. He would not be a skeptic he would be a supporter watch some of his video's Neil has said it time after time. So in short Neil is calling it as he see's it and what he see's in Ray's technological advancement time line is laughable and should not be taken seriously yet if ever.

There is an astonishing resemblance.

Let me begin by saying that I'm a neurologist who majored in neuroscience, minored in physics, and researched deep brain stimulation for many years. It has always been my theory that while Kurzweil does understand computers, he fails to accept our incredible ignorance of how the human brain truly functions, in all of its nonlinearities and plasticities that are not so simply explained by our current models. This is further confirmed by his mischaracterization that parts of brains of Parkinson's disease patients are connected to computers. A deep brain stimulator is basically technology of a 50 year-old cardiac peacemaker that has been modified to apply a fixed pattern of electrical impulse to provide a fairly modest improvement in functioning of subcortical brain nuclei. DBS was in fact discovered by accident while stimulating prior to lesion surgery, and though there are some decent theories as to how it works, nobody truly understands its mechanism of action or even which parts of the brain are being stimulated (including axonal tracks that pass by the multiple nuclei that would be affected by gradients of the electric field produced by these devices). Mr. Kurzweil calls this a brain connected to a computer because it sounds nice within his arguments and reads nicely in his books, but I maintain that he fails to appreciate the true complexity of the human brain, an organ of which our understand has merely scratched the surface.

A complete knowledge of the human brain is not necessary to create a simulation that performs at similar levels. We don't even understand how our modern digital neural networks really work and we build those ourselves. Abstraction is the solution here and has worked well so far, as of right now ai has been able to simulate most of the capabilities of a human mind and even recently it seems generalization may have finally been solved (by far the biggest hurdle in the way of human level ai)

I was so sleepy, I came to KZread for music, I was Neil in my recommended, I looked at the time 20 minutes, I said dang this is too long, I clicked on it anyways, it's interesting, they talk about A-I I recently did a mediocre paper for my early college on A-I, I get excited, I finish the video and am now funny awake. I think about my future with me liking animals and technology. Man I love science

Honestly, with how quickly we're advancing with technology, singularity may be achieved quicker than we're currently theorizing it will be since we're quickly reaching the point of being able to recreate the human mind through the computer that can learn, think, feel emotions, and so much more without outside assistance.

+MrSimjam1980 Are you highly intelligent enough to make that assertion? I worked with remarkably intelligent people through grad school and during my research career, and one constant was that the really smart ones seemed happier than I was. I am quite intelligent by most standards, but I got to know so many people who baffled me with their intellect. I went from always being the smartest kid in the class as an undergrad to feeling like the stupid one in grad school. I found that depressing at the time, but everywhere I went in research it seemed that everyone was generally happy and well balanced. (It turns out that I've lived with depression most of my life, which accounts for a lot of my perspective.) I think you are simply incorrect in that statement. I would far more easily believe that highly intelligent people are more likely to be satisfied or content with life. Just because Kurzweil has a droopy, Woody Allen face doesn't mean he is in fact unhappy. The most intelligent people in the world are probably not celebrities. I doubt most people would recognize them if they passed them on the street, or had a conversation with them at a dinner party. Intelligence is not what a lot of people think it is. It certainly does not lead to a special, universal understanding of life that invariably leads to a bleak world view. Remember, intelligent minds disagree too. People are people.

"I don't need you to tell me what the movies do" - Neil deGrasse Tyson. Clearly on the ropes.

Ray Kurzweil forgets (and seems unable to remember for couple of decades now) that in nature all exponential processes never end up in "singularity" of any form. Destruction, explosion, breakage of any kind, calm slowing down of the process - yeah, sure, but not singularity. And the reason for this - resources. Any process that does anything at all - requires resources (because thermodynamics :) ) and most of these resources are limited. Energy, any materials, human brains (as in people who move science forward) - all these are limited. When demand for resources will overcome potential capacity - exponent will slow down, and slow down fast. And resources are never limitless. See you in 2029 :)

I get what you are saying and you raise important points, but I think there is a stark difference between natural and synthetic processes. Namely, resources limit the growth of species up to max carrying capacity that an environment can sustain it, but with technology we have Moore's law and ever increasing efficiency which far outpaces the efficiency seen in nature. A small, finite amount of resources today can amount to some number of transistors and what have you, but a few years down the road, we will have increased computing potential from that same amount of resource just from how we build those component parts and how much quicker we will be able to transmit data. With that in mind, I think there are plenty of resources (material, intellectual, or otherwise) for continued technological growth at ever accelerating rates.

In an explosion it would be the moment of detonation and expansion. Anything past that would be because of the singularity.

19:08 This is where I always disagree with Kurzweil. HE claims that the challenges we face are always linear ones, when in fact, our brains are much more easily able to detect changes on a logarithmic scale, instead of a linear one. If you have one lion, that is a specific danger. If you have two lions, that is twice the danger. Three lions does not continue this trend, rather 4 lions is twice the danger, again. By the time you get up to 50 lions, a single other lion is completely unnoticeable, but twice the lions is still very much a thing you can notice. If you break down temperature, light, and other such forces, our brains work purely on a logarithmic scale. Small changes (linear) to a bright light are unnoticeable, but percentage changes always remain distinguishable no matter how bright (until our senses overload from the total signal strength and "white out"). Our brains do not work on a linear scale, they work on a logarithmic one.

Heres my take on AI...First of all humans have 3 things that motivates all actions:1. To reproduce2. Fear (to avoid stuff that we dont like/that can harm us)3. Pleasure (to gain stuff that we do like/that can benefit us)So AI has none of these Three things. How ethical is it to create it in them (if even possible)? Basically giving them Death anxiety? Furthermore humans are extremely irrational. We do things depending on how bored we are, hormones, blood sugar, opportunity you name it. Do we really want AI with this trait?Think about it.

More than 90% of the body's serotonin lies in the gut, as well as about 50% of the body's dopamine, which is currently being studied to further our understanding of its utility in the brain.[16][17][18"en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enteric_nervous_system

Hello :) I wanted to comment on the idea of 'motivation' in a machine that you bring up. First, I don't think it's desirable to simply copy human motivation into a an AI, if just because it seems like many of the persistent social problems in our world stem from innate motivations that are simply maladaptive in the context of the modern era. I think we agree on this. Second, I think that something as simple as programming an AI to optimize its activities towards a specific outcome or range of outcomes is identical to giving it a psychological motivation to pursue those outcomes. I think that programming motivation into an AI is not just ethical, but necessary for it to function in a rational manner.

Kurzweil said that in 30 years, an information technology is 1 billion times more powerful than it was at the beginning. That sounds impressive, so let's look at it. The Mac has been around over 30 years, so it should be a billion times more capable than it was 30 years ago. Yes, it's a lot faster, it's in color and it has a larger screen, but is it really a billion times more capable than it was in 1986? Well, it still needs a lot of troubleshooting (check the Apple forums for proof of that), and you still operate it by clicking on icons, pulling down menus and typing on a keyboard. In other words, despite being a billion times more "capable," it still works the same way it did 30 years ago. I guess what I'm saying is that a billionfold improvement on paper does not necessarily translate into the kind of advancements Kurzweil implies.

It's about creating a software that emulates a human...and can be implemented in millions of different personalities.

Chris Ducat This is where you get it wrong. Chances are that we'll integrate our own mind to advanced hardware to expand it before we reach true AI. Basically we'll e the machines before they become us. Now for AI that only emulate human interaction we are not that far of. They will just follow programs though. They won't independent thoughts before a while. Also an other thing that you are failing to realise is that true AI will probably build itself. From a more primitive one it will start an exponential cycle of self improvements and reach true AI by it's own capacities, like a child learning all we'll be able to do is to input data and it will analyse from that logical extrapolations.

This ended on a far more positive note than i thought it would.

It occurs to me, perhaps, the matrix I am living in, is, in fact, the 'injection' of information they discussed. The stage of learning where a 'neo'-cortex, in this interface, is a node, where we connect, from the other interface, the real world, for getting a download. I'm glad he mentioned a ball game, it would be just like that. .."Hmm, what to do today? Let's check out this Human Life program. It says, 'A corporeal experience in a static universe where you experience the passage of time, and physical phenomenon, such as thought, emotions, birth and death.' Hmm, that sounds cool."

Just so everyone is clear: a lot of Kurzweil's ideas are fundamentally flawed. For example, he talks about the neocortex, explaining that it is what gives humans our intelligence and that the difference between a mouse and a primate is the size of the neocortex. While it is generally true that more intelligent animals have a larger neocortex, that fact alone does not explain our intelligence, because our brains are not that much different from apes, and some dolphins actually have *more* neocortical neurons than humans. Those same dolphins also have higher level associative areas like the primate frontal lobe. The point is - we still have no idea what specific biological difference gives us our intelligence, so to simply say "add more cortical neurons in the cloud, get more brain power" is meaningless and premature. There is still some aspect of our brain that is not currently well understood that gives us our language, reasoning, and high level cognitive abilities.

Dolphins and whales have very complex brains as well, and we don't know what the quantitative difference in complexity actually is. You'll hear the "complexity argument" from lots of computer science people, especially those studying machine/deep learning, because they want to think that if they keep getting more computing power which allows bigger and more complex artificial networks, then they'll eventually get human like intelligence. That's really a pipe dream until we figure exactly what about the human brain architecture gives us our special abilities.

Watched this three years ago, watching it now in 2020 and knowing how far off we are from Moore’s law. Ray is making more and more sense every year.

Seems we might actually reach the singularity before 2029 with Google's recent generalized agent breakthrough. Many predictions are saying 2027 or earlier

Ah u got me. I was like " how is this comment 9 yrs old while the video is only 6 yrs old ? "

I see a very large difference in intelligence with both of them speaking side by side. Neil is extremely focused with astrophysics where as Ray is quantifying multiple different fields.

With the future advancements in tissue engineering and bio mechanical engineering Dr. Ray Kurzweil's statements are not unrealistic.

After ive seen chatgpt, i so believe in Ray's predictions

6 minutes in yall are talking about uploading info directly to the brain.now imagine this, u read a 4 series book, each book containing at least 500 pages. all within 4 seconds, now your brain which has been previously programmed to not take in that much info at once has to process all the emotional reactions you had to characters diferent experiences at once, it IMO might make some people mentally snap.any opinions?

syphon the emotional processing to those nano-comps (in your bloodstream also) so you CAN deal with 2000 pages of emotional input... feed the results back out over a slower time, maybe an 8 hour sleep-cycle so you aren't overwhelmed. Point is, we'll integrate those 4x500 page books when we're able to handle it and not before.

to mention biological improvements to the brain. it got to the current state because the only thing it needed to accomplish is have us 'not die'. with a real goal beyond survival we can self augment to whatever degree we choose at some point in order to simply consume 500 pages of content every second of the day or more.

I was thinking "when comes the sceptical thuoghts and questions?". Then the "interview" was over.

Well, now that the operating system is being loaded in the guise of the covid-19 vaccine, just pray you can survive the upload process to begin with 😂 Worry about being hacked after the upload is successful and you are still alive and not disabled. 😂
