The Singularity is Near

A few entries back, I wrote about Ray Kurzweil.  He's a big league, all-star technology innovator, who sees a future in which we are all linked to eachother by the brain-computer interfaces we have. We're talking everybody is plugged directly into their personal computer, which are in turn connected to every other personal computer.Would that make us drone-like Borg facsimiles, or perhaps like bees or ants functioning collectively?  Kurzweil forecasts this hyper-linked future, but seems less sure if it will be a good or not so good thing.

I just learned that Kurzweil now has a movie coming out that is titled, The Singularity is Near. 

Here is a link to a movie trailer for The Singularity is Near...  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8XWXJDgbeP0&feature=player_embedded
