Singularity Summit

Eagerly awaiting audio and video from this year’s Singularity Summit. It seems they should have it available by early December.

A number of podcasts from last year’s show are available at IT Conversations.  It’s well worth listening to and starts you thinking.

But then, you soon realize that that there’s a problem.  If the singularity is inevitable (and it seems to be – I certainly believe so) – why have our efforts to discover other intelligent life in the universe failed?

Seems like a random thought – but of course this is not new (merely new to me!).

A most interesting summary can be found here.

You should also check out http://www.kurzweilai.net with lots of interesting articles on the Singularity, AI etc.

I still believe

Please please please let Mr Wilcox be right.  The Microsoft Mobile strategy is an embarrassment.  I’ve always been a Microsoft supporter, but at the moment I can’t see a Windows mobile phone that will make a difference.  Even when they finally DO release Silverlight for it, I can’t see that taking off big time.

The numbers just don’t add up.  Around $300M for the current OS strategy, while Apple gets revenue of $4.9 Billion selling 6.9 million iPhones?

MS must realize that the potential market is just huge – several billion, not a measly 300 mil.

So – the only question is – when can we see it?  Could the Inquirer be correct about the NVidia chip?

Gonna have to wait till at least CES…
