SXSW: Ray Kurzweil - Expanding Our Intelligence Without Limit
I was late to this session and two ballrooms were filled. I had to follow Twitter but the conversations were amazing. Great presentation about going toward the singularity Kurzweil has been talking about for the past few years. Amazing presentation!
RT @paliosaratoga: We all have 23,000 little software programs in our body called genes #sxiqexpand #sxsw
Future: 3D printing will change the world, blood cell size devices for blood streams of animals, brain modeling. #sxiqexpand
In the future search engines won't wait to ask, they will already be listening with your permission. - Kurzweil #sxiqexpand
The SOPA/PIPA opposition was unprecedented because it rose organically and quickly from the user base. #SXIQExpand #sxsw
RT @katmandelstein: When Wikipedia went on strike, I felt like a part of my mind went on strike. -- Ray Kurzweil #SXiqexpand #sxsw
Humour, art, irony live in the same part of the brain as stuff computers are dealing with now. They just need more neocortex. #SXIQExpand
the levels of our neocortex that recognize art,humor,etc. are an add-on to neocortex in other mammals.(Thus the big forehead) #SXIQExpand
RT @acastilla: Future: 3D printing will change the world, blood cell size devices for blood streams of animals, brain modeling. #sxiqexpand
RT @JenNedeau: "I don't see it as an us vs. them. I see it as us vs. us." - Ray Kurzweil on computers taking over the humans #SXIQExpand #SXSW- Does having your head in the clouds all the time effect our actual human experience? #sxiqexpand
We outsource alot of our historical, social, personal memories to the cloud. It frees up our brain to be more creative. #SXIQExpand
Kurtzweil: Our cultural memories have been sourced to the cloud, freeing us up to do other things #SXIQExpand
Kurzweil: we should reorganize education to teach kids by *doing* - #Agree #SXIQExpand- Kurtzweil: Time triage is the most important decision in dealing with tech #SXIQExpand
You can decide how you're going to balance your time but basically it has expanded our minds. #sxiqexpand
RT @donchristian: Reorganize education by giving students freedom to do projects...ray Kurzweil (and I agree) #SXIQExpand- RT @MurrayComm: We should change education to teach kids by doing, not memorizing. They need to have freedom to learn. #SXIQExpand
RT @kelissa: Will the computers JUDGE us for our search terms? Lev Grossman looks how I feel while interviewing Kurzweil. #sxIQexpand
"Within a quarter century, nonbiological intelligence will match the range and subtlety of human intelligence" #SXIQExpand- How confident can we be of Moore's law? Thermodynamics shows us that predictions can be made on overall properties #sxiqexpand
Change education w/ more doing. I always remember my projects. #RayKurzweil YES! more STEM (labs) & future problem solving #sxiqexpand
RT @kesseljunkie: Kurzweil: The Law of Accelerating Returns doesn't fail, the Paradigms shift. #SXIQExpand- RT @crgonzalez: Kurtzweil: tech has expanded our minds, but we are still using a 19th century education model #SXIQExpand
