Join us for a fascinating discussion of Ray Kurzweil's latest book, "The Singularity Is Nearer: When We Merge With AI," to be moderated by Mike Ignatowski of AMD. In this compelling follow-up to his groundbreaking “The Singularity Is Near, Kurzweil explores the rapid pace of technological progress and argues that we are rapidly approaching a point where artificial intelligence will surpass human intelligence, and be used to augment it. Kurzweil discusses related technologies–nanotechnology, 3D printing, clean energy, biotech–that, together with AI, will transform what it means to be human, and the impact on society. Our minds, bodies, and world are about to change in fundamental ways, within our lifetimes!

Whether you've read the book or not, everyone is invited to attend and participate in this thought-provoking conversation. Mike Ignatowski will guide us through the key ideas and implications of Kurzweil's work, and we encourage you to share your thoughts and questions. Don't miss this opportunity to engage with other curious minds and explore the future of technology and humanity.
