Damn. Well, it probably wasn't weighing so heavily on his mind, because now it's the inevitable climax of most of his solo presentations. I wonder when the obsession started.
Dare I say realistically we haven't made any substantial progress since '89? Yes, a few inventions here and there, but as a species have we really improved?
We're more in the early stages of what will change our species, although these inventions here and there that we've already had are a bit more extreme that you think... the internet for example is much more powerful than people give it credit for, and in terms of operations per second, the new Titan V graphics card (worth $3,000) is 55,000 times more powerful than the most powerful supercomputer in the world of the time of this video... so the numbers of operations per second a computer can do are now huge and catching up to the human brain, so going forward from here, if we continue this exponential trend for just another decade or so, things will start to get interesting and noticeable real fast, and work will start to be automated by AI at a speed and scale that'll dwarf the first industrial revolution... basically a doubling of several million calculations per second every 18 months isn't really that noticeable, but we're now in the trillions so this curve of progress is starting to get pretty damn steep and will become more and more noticeable.
This is how young he'll look 200 years from now.
we need more Ray Kurzweil for our civilization!
His voice sounds exactly the same as it does now!
haha I noticed that too, he always does the lurch thing as well.
Actually, and unsurprisingly, it sounds younger.
yeah was thinking the same
He sounds a little bit likew Ben Shapiro here
Cat dog pattern recognition problem solved.
It took 25 years
wow! Utopia is just a few years away!
Roodborst Kalf it took Nature the age of the universe to come this far. . Althought what She produced is of incompatable complexity for sure
@ Frank Heuser : true: 25 years is nothing in comparison with 13 billion years.
hot dog; not hot dog
Beautiful host.
Imagine the beats that cal Berkley dude could come up with on that kurzweil 250.
When she talked about ideas that sound like science fiction but that they now have (in 1989) I was thinking, "you ain't seen nothing yet."
HIs voice didn't change at all...
thanks
whos wathching this on 2020 ?
What about 2023
What about 24
2024
I'm pretty sure the emergency room is still nowhere near paperless 30 years hence
Dr. Singularity
Featuring Stephen Hawking's voice
Hmmm he didn't twitch his nose then like he does now
Fringe....., probably from the aging process now. Luckily, aging rejuvenation is in the experimental and early stages of usage.
Ahhh maybe nerves? Nahhhhh
And his hair was real.

Uma Pemmaraju is now on Fox News, and still smoking hot despite being born in 1958.
Now he is old ... what happened to immortality and anti-ageing?
2045 immortality
anti-ageing 2030

Before he became obsessed with mind-uploading. Probably because he was 40 here, not 70.
If you read his books at the time, he was still pretty obsessed with it, just less so during interviews.

@@squamish4244I think when his father passed away
@@MASTERCHIEF2434Yeah. I got that from his documentary - it seems like the turning point of his life.

I guess when we get enough computing speed we will inevitably simulate our own baby Universes. What else is there to do with our time on Earth?
Hahaha what? The progress we've made these last 30 years are unlike something we have ever experienced before. How fucking dumb are you kid
Depends on your idea of progress
We haven't really made inroads on the 'happiness' front. People are as miserable now as they were then. That would be the real breakthrough.
God damn he's a freak
I am sure you really changed the world as he did and keeps doing in order to say that. He is a rockstar known by the entire world and you are nobody.
