'Kurzweil's vision of our super-enhanced future is completely sane
and calmly reasoned, and his book should nicely smooth the path for
the earth's robot overlords, who, it turns out, will be
us' New York Times
'Kurzweil foresees a disease-free world where no one ages and
artificial brains make machines human-like - and he is not one to
get things wrong' Daily Telegraph
'Ray Kurzweil is the best person I know at predicting the future of
artificial intelligence' Bill Gates
'Kurzweil knows a lot about new technology and he knows how to make
it sound fun. He is dazzling in his enthusiasm for things to come,

intersection of science and technology' Financial Times
