, discussed his exploration on reverse engineering the human brain.Kurzweil's conjecture is that the neocortex is a form of exponential technology, and our understanding of its operation is progressing exponentially. This study continues from his earlier explorations of artificial intelligence and technological progress documented in books such as, The Singularity Is Near

In the video embedded below, Kurzweil talks about mapping the human brain, the continuing evolution of technology and continued rise of artificial intelligence from the DEMO 2012 show in Santa Clara, California. His talk focuses on “how we are making exponential gains in reverse-engineering the human brain, how these insights are going to fuel an AI revolution, and the impact of that revolution on business and society.”
Produced by IDG Enterprise in conjunction with VentureBeat, the DEMO conferences in the U.S., China, Brazil, and Singapore focus on emerging technologies and new product innovations.
