The noted inventor and futurist’s successor to his landmark work explores how technology will transform humanity in the coming decades. Since its release in 2005, the vision presented has inspired a global movement, with many of Kurzweil's predictions about technological advancements, such as AI and biotechnology, becoming commonplace. In this new book, Kurzweil reassesses his 1999 forecast that AI will achieve human-level intelligence by 2029 and examines the exponential growth of technology that could enhance human intelligence a millionfold. He discusses topics like rebuilding the world atom by atom with nanobots, extending life beyond the current age limit of 120, and connecting our brains to the cloud to reinvent intelligence. Kurzweil highlights how exponential technologies are driving innovation across industries, improving well-being, and reducing poverty and violence. He also addresses the potential dangers of biotechnology, nanotechnology, and AI, exploring controversial issues such as AI's impact on jobs, the safety of autonomous vehicles, and “After Life” technology aimed at virtually reviving the deceased through their data and DNA. This work represents the culmination of six decades of research on artificial intelligence and Kurzweil’s significant contribution to understanding the impending technological revolution.
