Join legendary futurist and inventor Ray Kurzweil for a mind-expanding conversation with tech visionary David Rose, exploring the astonishing implications of his new book, The Singularity Is Nearer: When We Merge with AI. Building on his era-defining 2005 bestseller, Kurzweil charts the exponential trajectory of AI — and predicts that within just two decades, humans will merge with artificial intelligence in ways that radically redefine what it means to be human.
Together, Kurzweil and Rose will unpack bold claims examined in the book with precision and insight: that we’ll rebuild the world atom by atom using nanobots, extend lifespans beyond 120 years, and link our brains directly to the cloud to amplify intelligence a millionfold. He explores the dazzling promise — and the potential peril — of technologies advancing at breakneck speed.
A rare opportunity to hear one of the most accurate forecasters of our time (per Bill Gates) reflect on six decades of pioneering AI work, in dialogue with a serial entrepreneur and fellow Singularity University founder. If the future is coming faster than we think, this is the conversation that prepares you to meet it.
