Description
The technical leaps made in the fields of programming, artificial intelligence, bioengineering, and nanotechnology have thrust humans into a fantastical present day that far surpasses the visions of all the great sci-fi authors who dazzled us with views of scientifically possible futures. That future is now. A world of zombies, robots and artificial intelligence is breaking into the mainstream. The moment when it merges with the human mind, called" The Singularity", is visible and Elon Musk warn that AI that will become self-aware and earn how to replicate and redesign itself at an ever-increasing rate-and be more dangerous to humans than our own vast arsenal of nukes. Can humans, limited by slow biological evolution, complete with synthetic intelligence? The Transhumanist future has been the goal of the global elite, who have knowingly steered mankind with social and bioengineering programs for the past two hundred years in the process to bring it about, perhaps seeking some kind of immorality. This book examines the history and future of robotics, artificial intelligence, zombies and a transhumanist utopia/dystopia integrating man with machine. How did it all begin, and what's in store for humans today, in the near future, and in the distant future? Find out here! Book jacket.
