The Singularity is Near: When Humans Transcend Biology

Cover The Singularity is Near: When Humans Transcend Biology
This optimistic view is based on several measurable trends, and a simple observation which has been proven repeatedly in the history of science: Scientific advances are enabled by a technology advance that allows us to see what we have not been able to see before. At about the turn of the twenty-first century, we passed a detectable turning point in both neuroscience knowledge and computing power. For the first time in history, we collectively know enough about our own brains, and have develope...d such advanced computing technology, that we can now seriously undertake the construction of a verifiable, real-time, high-resolution model of significant parts of our intelligence.
                   —LLOYD WATTS, NEUROSCIENTIST1  Now, for the first time, we are observing the brain at work in a global manner with such clarity that we should be able to discover the overall programs behind its magnificent powers.
                   —J. G. TAYLOR, B. HORWITZ, K.
