In Brief Futurist Dave Evans shares his thoughts about the future of human-machine interaction. In an interview with James Bedsole, Evans explained what the thought of Ray Kurzweil's prediction of nanobots in the body by 2030. <\/p>\n
Ray Kurzweil, Googles director of engineering, is a well-known futurist who seems to have a penchant for accurate predictions. Most recently, he has again reiterated his prediction that the so-called technological singularity will happen by 2045. For Kurzweil, this doesnt translate to an end-of-the-world-as-we-know-it scenario courtesy of artificially intelligent (AI) machines. Rather, it means human beings will become powered by machines. <\/p>\n
Kurzweil believes that, as part of this human-machine melding, nanobots will inhabit our bodies by the 2030s. While flowing through our arteries, thesemicroscopic robots would keep us healthy and transmit our brains onto the cloud. <\/p>\n
Another futurist, Dave Evans, founder and CTO of Silicon Valley stealth startup Stringify, gave his thoughts about Kurzweils nanobot idea in an interview with James Bedsole on February. <\/p>\n
Evans explained that he thinks such a merging of technology and biology isnt at all farfetched. In fact, he described three stages as to how this will occur: the wearable phase (where we are today), the embeddable phase (where were headed, with neural implants and such), and the replaceable phase. <\/p>\n
Does Evans agree with Kurzweils idea of nanobots flowing inside our bodies? Check out the rest of his answer in the video embedded here. <\/p>\n
