Paperback. Zustand: Good. NATIONAL BESTSELLER .Bold futurist Ray Kurzweil, author of The Singularity Is Near, offers a framework for envisioning the future of machine intelligence-"a book for anyone who wonders where human technology is going next" (The New York Times Book Review). "Kurzweil offers a thought-provoking analysis of human and artificial intelligence and a unique look at a future in which the capabilities of the computer and the species that invented it grow ever closer."-BILL GATES Imagine a world where the difference between man and machine blurs, where the line between humanity and technology fades, and where the soul and the silicon chip unite. This is not science fiction. This is the twenty-first century according to Ray Kurzweil, the "restless genius" (The Wall Street Journal), "ultimate thinking machine" (Forbes), and inventor of the most innovative and compelling technology of our era.
