He writes that AI is now exceeding the human brain at several cognitive tasks and that it will eventually do all things far better than even the most expert humans.
These new machines can learn, reason, plan and act with intention, and they are becoming far smarter far faster than most people, save Kurzweil, could have predicted.
Soon, he forecasts, they will be indistinguishable from human brains, before accelerating past them in nearly every way.
The famed futurist remains inhumanly optimistic about the world and his own fate—and thinks the singularity is minutes away.
