Ray Kurzweil predicts immortality by 2030. Advances in genetics, nanotech, and robotics will reverse aging and make us illness-resistant. His past predictions have been accurate.
In an interview with the YouTube channel, Kurzweil discussed how advances in genetics, nanotechnology, and robotics are paving the way for “nanobots” that can reverse the effects of aging.
He stated in 1990 that by the year 2000, the greatest chess player in the world will be defeated by a computer, and in 1997, Deep Blue defeated Gary Kasparov.Another shocking prognosis made by Kurzweil in 1999 was that a $1,000 laptop will have the processing and memory of a human brain by the year 2023.
This evaluates a machine’s capacity for intelligent behavior that is comparable to or indistinguishable from human behavior.As a result of attaching machines to our neocortex, humans will become more intelligent.
