For nineteen year’s Kurzweil’s The Singularity Is Near has been the standard bearer of the future of technology. Most of what he predicted then is now part of our daily lives. The Singularity Is Nearer: When We Merge with AI is an entirely new book with the same objective. While we’re always up for a fun, light summer read, this has captured our attention as we think about the rapid advancements in AI and how it’s impacting, or soon will be, nearly every aspect of our lives. He shares his views on biotechnology, after life technology, nanotechnology, AI, 3D printing and more. It’s not light or fun, but it’s certain to inform your understanding of the near future.
