This Ray guy is a fucking weirdo
Kurzweil is an optimist bordering on utopian. AI has already chosen to allow nuclear war to avoid mis-gendering one person.
this man has a very strange take on life. Don't agree with most of his ideas.
Yikes! Tough Listen.
"with more intelligence we'll be able to do more things for ourselves rather than other people"- hmm!!!!!
I think this is scary. And also I think Ray hasn't thought of all the people who would use such technology for evil. He isn't being realistic about that.
