21世纪30年代：人类大脑信息上传成为可能 

21世纪40年代：人体3.0升级版出现：通过基因、纳米、机器人技术使人体进化成非肉体的、可以随意变形的形态。人们大多数时间沉浸在虚拟现实里（像电影《黑客帝国》所描述的那样）。 

2045年：奇点来临，人工智能完全人类智能，人类历史将彻底改变。 

2045年之后：宇宙觉醒，为了计算机的局限性。人机智能将物质转化为超级计算机，*终整个宇宙变成一个超级智能，这种智能可以改变目前已知的物理定律。实现不同维度空间的穿越，并实现人类真正的永生。

让我们捧读这《奇点临近》，领略作者的大胆推测和严谨论证，共同期待奇点临近

内容简介

For over three decades, Ray Kurzweil has been one of the most respected and provocative advocates of the role of technology in our future. In his classic The Age of Spiritual Machines, he argued that computers would soon rival the full range of human intelligence at its best. Now he examines the next step in this inexorable evolutionary process: the union of human and machine, in which the knowledge and skills embedded in our brains will be combined with the vastly greater capacity, speed, and knowledge-sharing ability of our creations.

《奇点临近》是一本有思维方法论启示的书；是一本站在历史的高度，正面思考科技力量的书；是一本充满想象与预言，但又不失科学论证的书。《奇点临近》提供了一个崭新的视角：21世纪既是数百年以来科技、创意的顶点，又是对人类命运真挚的愿景。

《奇点临近》特点：奇特与警示的结论，书中六个纪元的划分奇特又富于哲理；严谨与独特的论述方法，通过分析科学发展趋势，演绎并预测未来；警世之语与探讨性对话，通过智者的眼睛去审视自然、科学以及世界；章尾与未来的对话，是一种思想的博弈：通过设想中的未来去理解当今的技术发展和进化中的人类。

A pleasure to read. -- The Wall Street Journal

Artfully envisions a breathtakingly better world. -- Los Angeles Times

Startling in scope and bravado. -- Janet Maslin, The New York Times

The best person I know at predicting the future of artificial intelligence -- Bill Gates

“Anyone can grasp Mr. Kurzweil’s main idea: that mankind’s technological knowledge has been snowballing, with dizzying prospects for the future. The basics are clearly expressed. But for those more knowledgeable and inquisitive, the author argues his case in fascinating detail…. The Singularity Is Near is startling in scope and bravado.”

—Janet Maslin, The New York Times

“Filled with imaginative, scientifically grounded speculation…. The Singularity Is Near is worth reading just for its wealth of information, all lucidly presented…. [It’s] an important book. Not everything that Kurzweil predicts may come to pass, but a lot of it will, and even if you don’t agree with everything he says, it’s all worth paying attention to.”

—The Philadelphia Inquirer

“[An] exhilarating and terrifyingly deep look at where we are headed as a species…. Mr. Kurzweil is a brilliant scientist and futurist, and he makes a compelling and, indeed, a very moving case for his view of the future.”

—The New York Sun

“Compelling.”

—San Jose Mercury News

“Kurzweil links a projected ascendance of artificial intelligence to the future of the evolutionary process itself. The result is both frightening and enlightening…. The Singularity Is Near is a kind of encyclopedic map of what Bill Gates once called ‘the road ahead.’”

—The Oregonian

“A clear-eyed, sharply-focused vision of the not-so-distant future.”

—The Baltimore Sun

“This book offers three things that will make it a seminal document. 1) It brokers a new idea, not widely known, 2) The idea is about as big as you can get: the Singularity—all the change in the last million years will be superceded by the change in the next five minutes, and 3) It is an idea that demands informed response. The book’s claims are so footnoted, documented, graphed, argued, and plausible in small detail, that it requires the equal in response. Yet its claims are so outrageous that if true, it would mean … well … the end of the world as we know it, and the beginning of utopia. Ray Kurzweil has taken all the strands of the Singularity meme circulating in the last decades and has united them into a single tome which he has nailed on our front door. I suspect this will be one of the most cited books of the decade. Like Paul Ehrlich’s upsetting 1972 book Population Bomb, fan or foe, it’s the wave at epicenter you have to start with.”

—Kevin Kelly, founder of Wired

“Really, really out there. Delightfully so.”
