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.
