Rudy Rucker versus the Singularity

March 4, 2008 9:46am

Read "The Intelligence of Evil, or The Lucidity Pact" by Baudrillard. PS, Ray Kurzweil is a irresponsible fool whos opinions are mired in performativity. We should stop idolizing him just because his opinions validate our technology fetishism. That is lazy thinking. Because someone of note calls arch-consumerism, futurism does not change the facts. Your wants and needs are engineered by a situation that did proceed you, does not care for you and will outlast you. If it can completely model us in all our nuance (which I doubt) it is only because we are simple apes. So I would ask anyone to resist "final solutions" in all their forms. It is the call of the mortals.
