and Machine
Ray Kurzweil, Ph.D.
Abstract: Entrepreneur, author, futurist and producer, Ray Kurzweil,

attempting to copy intelligently biological subsystems and brain
uploading as well as why the Law of Accelerating Returns will make
these possible sooner than many think possible.

Typos:
Third paragraph after “Image 2: Reader “:
“If all the AI systems in the world suddenly stopped functioning, our
economic infrastructure would grind to a halt. Your bank would cease doing
business. Most transportation would be crippled. Most communications
would be crippled. This was the not the case a decade ago. Of course, our
AI systems are not smart enough—yet-- to organize such a conspiracy.
Strong AI. If you understand something in only one way, then you really
don’t understand it at all. This is because if something goes wrong, you get
stuck with a thought that just sits in your mind with nowhere to go.

Upgrading Humans – Technical Realities and New
Morals
Kevin Warwick, Ph.D.
Abstract: Dr. Warwick, Professor of Cybernetics at the University of

Dr. Warwick also explains the present and possible future benefits of
the technology of merging man and machine.

The Geoethics of Frankenfolk
Martine Rothblatt, Ph.D.
Abstract: Dr. Martine Rothblatt, Chairman of United Therapeutics of
Maryland, analyzes historic cultural and civil differences illustrated in

Typos:
1. Second paragraph below Astro Boy and Cylons photos:
In SteveN Spielberg's film, "A.I." [6], a mother dumped the cute little AI kid
with the hankering for spaghetti at the side of a highway. That's a pretty
mean thing for a mother to do. We will give her a brownie point though, for
tossing him out with his robot teddy bear. Also, remember how the wise and
kind father kicked the "Bicentennial Man" [7] out of the house that he so
immaculately maintained and made a fortune for wise father – all because he
simply asked for a living wage. Empowerment, via the creation of an
imitation, followed by disappointment due to the imitation feeling separate,
unequal, unloved, and/or threatened, followed by conflict arising out of
humanity's inadequate response to its imitation's unhappiness and then
regret based on humanity's disdain for finding itself in conflict.

The Ethics of Evolution, and the Evolution of Ethics
Walter Truett Anderson
Abstract: Dr. Anderson, author and President Emeritus of the World
Academy of Art and Science, discusses the challenge of becoming
technologically responsible in a rapidly-changing and increasingly
global civilization.
Key Words: Geoethics, evolution, consciousness, Antropocene,
cosmic heritage, galactic ecosystem, connectedness, non-dualism,
Typos: In closing, let me tell you what I think is happening now, to us,
to sentient creatures on this planet: We are experiencing growth of
consciousness, an extension of self – in Damasio's term. Everybody
(add the word: who?) now lives on Earth, is participating in a mental
migration into a global frame of reference – the only (the only what??)
dramatically revealed to us a few decades ago in the Apollo photograph
of the planet. Everybody has moved – unevenly, of course – into the
global arena. Everybody is also – again, unevenly – becoming aware of
the universe in a way that people were not when they merely gazed at
the night sky. The media send all our minds tumbling into an
environment of new experiences, promises, fears beyond the scope of
anything previously known. Out at the edges of this are scientific and
technological discoveries that promise further transformations. A time
not only for big ideas, but also for great deeds. and big ideas. It is also a
time when we have a very real chance of destroying our planet and
world civilization.

1. Under the second callout:
The primary contenders toward achieving a neurological life… (this a
very long paragraph)… … It’s obviously very complicated and requires
a solid understanding of how consciousness works, and then how to
recreate the consciousness with technology, and feed it to a person’s
brain. However, if the conscious experience is the result of
chemical/electrical processes, then cognitive technology should, in
theory, have the ability to create a perfect simulation.
