Singularity Summit: Another Early Discount Ending, New Speakers and a Banner

The Singularity Institute exists to confront the challenge of powerful AI, both the opportunity and the risk.

Back to the SIAI website

In the coming decades, humanity will likely create a powerful AI. SIAI exists to confront this urgent challenge, both the opportunity and the risk. SIAI is fostering research, education, and outreach to increase the likelihood that the promise of AI is realized for the benefit of everyone.

We’ve added John Tooby, the founder of evolutionary psychology, to our excellent roster for this upcoming August 14-15 conference at the Hyatt Regency San Francisco, along with Ramez Naam, author of More Than Human.

For those interested in technology and science, this is a star-studded roster. I’ve listed them before on this blog, but let me mention a few of the highlight speakers yet again: Ray Kurzweil, author of The Singularity is Near, the “world’s first cyborg” Stephen Mann, animal intelligence pioneer Irene Pepperberg, leading bionanotechnologist Dr. Anita Goel, bioethicist Gregory Stock, computational neurobiologist Terry Sejnowski, creator of the world’s most realistic humanoid robots, David Hanson.

We also still have discounted hotel rooms available at the Hyatt.

See you in San Francisco! This will be one of the best science/technology conferences ever.
