Chapter 16

Sumner's review of Kurzweil is not only an eye-opener in the sense that this reality could possibly come true but also in the sense that Sumner, a person of intelligence, agrees with Kurzweil. When masses of intelligent people agree together, it usually means something is right or something is impending. Not to be self-appreciating but I believe that this view of the world can certainly come true. Just a few years ago, Deep Blue beat the great Kasparov at chess. Chess - a game that man has played for about 300 years was beaten by a computer designed in about 5 years. Technology is just so advanced and it's already being advanced at such a fast pace that this "immortality" could certainly just be around the corner.
