The Singularity will occur in 2045

So, I’ve definitely heard of Ray Kurzweil and the notion of the Singularity quite a bit, but I’d never actually read much about it. This was a very interesting read that explains the premise behind it and Kurzweil’s efforts to engage (debate) anyone who doesn’t believe it’s coming:

Some of it honestly sounds like it’s straight out of the sci-fi series by Peter F. Hamilton I’ve been reading lately, so I’m interested to see what people think. Enjoy, and see you in 2045 when we all get assimilated!

p.s.- Apologies if I’m years late to the Singularity party and everyone I know is bored of discussing it. If that’s the case, who has the signup sheet?!?!
