Ray Kurzweil and Barry Ptolemy answer questions on the press line at the West Coast Premiere of Transcendent Man at the Hollywood Chinese Graumann theater.
  • Natalja Abdulbarova, Joel Morgan and Michael Shumlich like this.
    • Ryan M. Usher We'll be ten years past the Singularity before this thing gets wide release.

      Seriously. What's the delay?

    • Transcendent Man Ryan, the film is still on its world wide festival tour. It will have it's general release in 2010.

    • Pete Johnston For all the anxious fans who are having a hard time waiting for this film (I count myself) there is a little known documentary on AI which can be watched or downloaded free from google videos. It is called Building Gods, enjoy

    • Matt Jeske Awesome sounds good, thanx for the link. Another interesting clip I found was about building products from the nanoscale upwards. Just search for nanotech assembler on YouTube. Future is very exciting.

    • Michael Dolan Building Gods is excellent. Hugo de Garis's opening monologue electrified me in a way only Kurzweil's first few chapters in "The Singularity Is Near" have ever done.
