One particular subject that fascinates me is the Singularity. From the Singularity Institute..
Some links about the subject:
"The Singularity is the technological creation of smarter-than-human intelligence. There are several technologies that are often mentioned as heading in this direction. The most commonly mentioned is probably Artificial Intelligence..."This is an event in the coming years that some scientist believe will happen within our lifetime. The idea is that the rate of technological innovation on arficial intelligence, robotics and genetic engineering will become exponential, eventually overtaking the human species. Ray Kurzweil one of the proponents of the idea has a come out with book titled Singularity Is Near. Robots taking over human, nanotechnology enhancing our biological system to enable humans to live forever.
