American futurist and in-house shill for Google

Raymond Kurzweil is an American futurist and in-house shill for Google. He has written books on health, artificial intelligence (AI), transhumanism, the technological singularity, and futurism. Kurzweil is a public advocate for the futurist and transhumanist movements and gives public talks to share his outlook on life extension technologies and the future of nanotechnology, robotics, and biotechnology.

Predictions

In 2015, Kurzweil predicted that "our" brains will be able to connect directly to the cloud, where there will be thousands of computers, and those computers will augment our existing intelligence. He said the brain will connect via nanobots — tiny robots made from DNA strands.[1]

“Our thinking then will be a hybrid of biological and non-biological thinking. We’ll be able to extend our limitations and think in the cloud. We’re going to put gateways to the cloud in our brains...We’re going to gradually merge and enhance ourselves. In my view, that’s the nature of being human – we transcend our limitations.”
Ray Kurzweil (2015)  [2]
