Wow, this really got my mind off of college decisions

<p>Futurist</a> Ray Kurzweil Pulls Out All the Stops (and Pills) to Live to Witness the Singularity</p>

<p>After I finished reading this article, Ivy decisions on Monday got put in their place.</p>

<p>We're going to be replacing ourselves with robots?</p>

<p>That's pretty epic.</p>

<p>Too bad cool stuff like that never happens.</p>

<p>haha, I've heard of this long time ago.
Funny huh?
With global warming and stuff, we human still have time, courage, and imagination to think about the notion of "future."</p>

<p>Since I'm a chink, Confucius says: Without knowing death, how can you know life?</p>

<p>What happen if I, Dr. Hannibal Lecter, paralyzes you and then gradually replace every single neurons of your's with electronic neurons or nerve tissues?
and when you wake up, you will remember everything except that you've undergone my experiment.
But the paradox of death is present here, namely, if the death of a human is determined by the termination of his brain, then must there be a "stop" a moment of brief death during this whole operation I've described. Does this imply that we can experience "death?" which will defeat the very meaning of death, will it?</p>

<p>Now, back to topic, if the singularity is true, and, if we replace ourselves with mechanical parts, or nano machine, and if present definition of death holds its truth value, then it is logical to deduct that in the future, all people will be dead people, zombies.
hahahahahahahahaha
muhahahhahahha
Just imagine zombie humans walking around and with prudish attitudes of a futurist.. lol</p>

<p>@pharma...I think you have to define "death" better. And even better...I think the definition of life has to be better. I mean, plants are living...but you could completely replace a plant, part by part and still call it the same plant (even though no part of the old plant is still part of it). So is the plant not living?</p>
