SYNAPSE COMPUTING. "A Defense Department agency has funded a program, Synapse, that is trying to develop a computer that resembles a brain in form and function." http://opinionator.blogs.nytimes.com/2014/03/02/the-philosophy-of-her/?_php=true&_type=blogs&_r=1 View in LinkedIn

NONBIOLOGICAL THINKING. "By the close of next century...Nonbiological thinking will be trillions of trillions of times more powerful than that of its biological progenitors, although it will be still of human origin." http://www.rense.com/ufo6/live.htm View in LinkedIn

NEW EVOLUTION RATE. "By the close of next century...There will be few humans without some form of artificial intelligence, which is growing at a double exponential rate, whereas biological intelligence is basically at a standstill." http://www.rense.com/ufo6/live.htm View in LinkedIn

BUCKET OF BOLTS. "By the close of the next century, nonbiological intelligence will be ubiquitous." http://www.rense.com/ufo6/live.htm View in LinkedIn

CONSCIOUSNESS. "The issue of consciousness will become even more contentious in the 21st century because nonbiological entities --read: machines-- will be able to convince most of us that they are conscious. They will master all the subtle cues that we now use to determine that humans are conscious. And they will get mad if we refute their claims." They will pass the Turing Test. http://www.rense.com/ufo6/live.htm View in LinkedIn

THE MELD. "Current predictions overlook the imminence of a world in which machines become more like humans-programmed with replicated brain synapses that re-create the ability to respond appropriately to human emotion, and humans become more like machines-our biological bodies and brains enhanced with billions of "nanobots," swarms of microscopic robots transporting us in and out of virtual reality. We have already started down this road: Human and machine have already begun to meld." http://www.rense.com/ufo6/live.htm View in LinkedIn

ELECTRONIC BRAIN. "But by 2030, we'll have the means to scan the human brain and re-create its design electronically." An extraordinary statement, to say the least. http://www.rense.com/ufo6/live.htm View in LinkedIn

WORTH REPEATING. "By 2050, $1,000 worth of computing will equal the processing power of all human brains on earth."" " https://lnkd.in/eEG7JS3 http://www.rense.com/ufo6/live.htm View in LinkedIn
