Human Beings and the Technology Singularity. Technology has come a long way. Some people think that in the future there will be a technological singularity. At this time human beings will basically merge with technology. It is imagined that there will be nano-technology this nanotechnology will make it so advances in medicine and computer will be possible. Some people say that the year of this technology singularity is 2029. That’s about 19 years away from today. I’ll be 49 years old. But people make predictions all the time. Weren’t we supposed to have high power laser beams and flying cars by now? What about space travel? It’s 2010, and we’re still trying to get humans on Mars. What makes 2029 special? Well, Raymond Kurzweil says that computer technology is different from advances in fields like physics. Kurzweil says that there will be exponential growth in the field of computers, especially in processing power. I guess there is something different from an advance in physics as opposed to an advance in computers. What is interesting is that by the year 2029 if things keep progressing toward the Technological Singularity, there may be a convergence with what people are talking about with the Zeitgeist and Venus Project movements. Ever want to store your mind in a computer when you go to bed? Stick around till 2029. Ever want to move objects with your mind? Watch the video below and see how monkeys do it. Check out the video below for more information about the Technological Singularity and about a new version of humanity.
