The Singularity is Nearer - When We Merge with AI

In 2010 I coordinated an SDG on the Ray Kurtzweil book, the Singularity is Near, published in 2005.

In the in the 19 years since then much has changed in our world. In the Singularity is Nearer, published on July 1st of 2024 Ray Kurtzweil assesses the changes in our digital world and the effects on our lives.

I sense that we are living in a ‘Gutenberg moment’, that is of accelerating returns of a greater magnitude then the availability of books brought. the book is fairly thick and yet in only 292 pages of text a great deal is communicated and followed by 107 pages of notes and an index.

I hope you will join me in this exploration and celebration of what we are to be in the near future and the not so near future.

There is no going back .
