Goodreads? & Ink Stained Robo-Hands (The Singularity)

Any of you blog readers on Good Reads?

Here is my profile: click here.

It is a list of books I have read, with little book reports. I have 14 friends on it… It is a useful online community because you can see what people you know are reading – and what they think about it.

I like it anyways. If you are on there add me as your friend!

I found this movie, “Building Gods,” when I was doing research on the book I am reading: “The Singularity is Near,” by Ray Kurzweil. Basically there is a group of people that say something is going to happen in the nearish future (the century), where machine intelligence becomes more intelligent than people, and once that happens the machines will be able to exponientially create better machines. These scientists are actually predicting a global war between machines and people.

Wild – I guess the Matrix is a real possibility…

Here is the website of Dr. Hugo de Garis, click here. A scientist working on building an articficial human brain.
