Can humans become immortal by 2030? With the help of AI and nanobots, Ray Kurzweil has predicted that the process of aging will soon be stopped. Know the full report.
Human Immortality Prediction: With the help of Amrit, we have heard or seen the story of humans becoming immortal in mythology and sometimes in science fiction films as a dream of technological immortality. However, now this imagination is moving towards turning into reality. This possibility has been emphasized by former Google engineer Ray Kurzweil. He is the world's leading futurologist, who has claimed that by 2030, humans can become biologically immortal.
Ray Kurzweil is not just a technical expert, but is considered an authentic prophet. More than 86% of his 147 predictions have proved correct, including revolutionary changes in areas such as the Internet, AI, biotechnology and computer-biology integration. In 1999, he was also awarded America's highest technical award 'National Medal of Technology'. His words are now considered not just science stories, but a technological roadmap.
How will immortality be possible?
According to Kurzweil, nanobots (micro robots) will be inserted into our bodies in the coming years. These nanobots will float continuously in the bloodstream and repair broken cells. They will identify and cure diseases at an early stage and reverse the aging process. The purpose of these bots will not only be treatment, but continuous monitoring and reconstruction of the body, so that the body can always remain young and healthy.
When humans and AI will become one
Kurzweil also says that by 2029, machines will acquire human-like intelligence and pass the Turing test. This means that machines will behave like humans. So much so that it will be difficult to identify who is a machine and who is a human. In the future, there will be a combination of human brain and artificial intelligence, which will increase our memory. The power to make decisions will be unimaginable and our brain can be uploaded to the cloud. This change will start the "Cyborg Age", where the boundaries between humans and machines will end.
What is Singularity and why is it revolutionary?
Ray Kurzweil's prediction related to immortality is related to the theory of "Singularity". Singularity is the moment when technology will develop so much that it will change the entire nature of human civilization. According to Kurzweil, Singularity will come by 2045. The intelligence of humans will increase billions of times. Consciousness will come out of the body and turn into digital form.
Is this future scary or exciting?
AI has already shown its power – in 2023, chatbots like GPT-4 and Bing AI not only changed the definition of conversation, but also raised the question of how far AI can evolve if it can learn on its own. Ray Kurzweil believes that this is not just science fiction, but the natural direction of evolution.
