The Singularity Countdown: AGI by 2029, Humans Merge with AI, Intelligence 1000x | Ray Kurzweil
Ray Kurzweil predicts humans will merge with artificial intelligence (AI) by 2045, resulting in a 1000x increase in intelligence and marking the beginning of a new era of unprecedented innovation, potentially transforming human life and society ## ## Questions to inspire discussion.
Preparing for AI Timeline.
đ€ Q: When should I expect human-level AI and what defines it? A: Human-level AI arrives by 2029, defined not by passing the Turing test (which only matches an ordinary person), but as AGI requiring expertise in thousands of fields and the ability to combine insights across disciplines.
đ§ Q: When will the singularity occur and what intelligence gain can I expect? A: The singularity happens by 2045 when humanity merges with AI to become 1000x more intelligent, creating a seamless merger where biological and computational thought processes become indistinguishable.
⥠Q: How much change should I prepare for in the next decade? A: Expect as much change in the next 10 years as occurred in the last 100 years (1925â2025), with AGI and supercomputers by 2035 enabling merging with AI for 1000x intelligence increase.

The Purpose of Life and Evolution is to âBecome like Godâ â Ray Kurzweil
As we evolve we become more intelligent, loving, creative and beautiful, so actually we are moving exponentially to have greater levels of the very properties we ascribe to god without limit. But we never become literally infinite but we are moving exponentially in that direction so that we become more God-like. Evolution is a spiritual process that moves us closer to God â Ray Kurzweil.

Weâll be uploading our entire MINDS to computers by 2045 and our bodies will be replaced by machines within 90 years, Google expert claims
Ray Kurzweil, the director of engineering at Google, has claimed that in just over 30 years, humans will be able to upload their entire minds to computers and become âdigitally immortalâ.
Humans will achieve immortality by 2030, says futurist
We are currently facing the possibility of achieving immortality for humans by 2030. This prediction comes from renowned futurist Ray Kurzweil, who has a history of making accurate predictions. He anticipates that with the ongoing progress in genetics, robotics, and nanotechnology, we will soon have nanobots coursing through our bloodstream, which could enable us to live forever. Itâs truly remarkable to consider that this could be a reality within just seven years.
Nanobots, which are small robots sized between 50â100 nm in width, are currently being used in various clinical medical applications. They are used in research as DNA probes, imaging materials for cells, and targeted delivery vehicles for cells. According to Kurzweil, nanobots represent the future of medicine.
They will be capable of repairing our bodies at a cellular level, making us resistant to diseases, aging, and, ultimately death. Additionally, he theorizes that humans may be able to transfer their consciousness into digital form, leading to immortality.
Futurist Ray Kurzweilâs Humanoid Robotics Startup Eyes a $500M Valuation
Kurzweil co-founded Beyond Imagination in 2018 with Harry Floor, a scientist and film producer, to develop autonomous A.I. systems capable of physical labor. The company is building humanoid robots aimed at addressing labor shortages in sectors such as health care and agriculture. Its advisory board includes motivational speaker Tony Robbins, former Qualcomm CEO Paul Jacobs, and former Paramount Pictures CEO James Gianopulos.
Between 2018 and 2019, the startup raised $4.2 million in seed funding and was most recently valued at $25 million, per Crunchbase. Reuters reported that its upcoming valuation could reach $500 million, with Gauntlet Venturesâa Dallas-based venture capital firmâexpected to be the sole investor in the new round.
