The amount of Singularity press is accelerating... exponentially!!!

The Singularity is Near... and so is the movie!! That's right, you can see it in your own backyard (assuming you live in NY of course) on June 24th!

Afterwards, enjoy tea and crumpets with Ray as he takes questions from the audience! Be there or be made out of outdated biological parts.

As far as I can tell, its going to be a similar presentation to the one he's giving next week (June 12-13th) at the Humanity+ Summit at Harvard:

Ray responds to Craig Venter making artificial life!

Ray has something to say about Craig Venter making an organism whose DNA was designed on a computer (from May 20th):

This, of course, begs the question: if we design an artificial organism that turns out to be intelligent, will it be considered artificial intelligence? Stay tuned for the intriguing answer...

Ray's got some new material!

Apparently, when Ray speaks at the H+ Summit at Harvard on June 12-13th, he'll have some new material! Wonder if he'll have the one about the priest, the rabbi, and the human body 3.0...
