Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
It's not type one diabetes, because it's an autoimmune
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:28:37.380
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
disorder that destroys your pancreas.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:28:42.900
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
I don't have that.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:28:44.860
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
But it's also not type two diabetes,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:28:46.780
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
because type two diabetes is your pancreas works fine,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:28:48.700
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
but your cells don't absorb the insulin well.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:28:51.740
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
I don't have that either.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:28:55.740
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
The pancreatitis I had partially damaged my pancreas,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:28:58.460
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
but it was a one time thing.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:29:04.560
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
It didn't continue, and I've learned now how to control it.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:29:06.100
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
But so that's just something that I had to do
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:29:11.620
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
in order to continue to exist.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:29:15.300
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
Since your particular biological system,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:29:18.540
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
you had to figure out a few hacks,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:29:20.460
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
and the idea is that science would be able
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:29:22.540
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
to do that much better, actually.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:29:24.900
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
Yeah, so I mean, I do spend a lot of time
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:29:26.420
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
just tinkering with my own body to keep it going.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:29:29.340
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
So I do think I'll last till the end of this decade,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:29:34.240
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
and I think we'll achieve longevity, escape velocity.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:29:37.740
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
I think that we'll start with people
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:29:41.660
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
who are very diligent about this.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:29:43.540
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
Eventually, it'll become sort of routine
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:29:46.180
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
that people will be able to do it.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:29:48.860
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
So if you're talking about kids today,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:29:51.400
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
or even people in their 20s or 30s,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:29:54.300
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
that's really not a very serious problem.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:29:56.700
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
I have had some discussions with relatives
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:30:01.300
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
who are like almost 100, and saying,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:30:05.100
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
well, we're working on it as quickly as possible.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:30:10.340
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
I don't know if that's gonna work.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:30:13.380
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
Is there a case, this is a difficult question,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:30:16.460
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
but is there a case to be made against living forever
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:30:18.400
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
that a finite life, that mortality is a feature, not a bug,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:30:23.400
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
that living a shorter, so dying makes ice cream
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:30:29.620
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
taste delicious, makes life intensely beautiful
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:30:36.020
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
more than it otherwise might be?
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:30:40.260
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
Most people believe that way, except if you present
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:30:42.220
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
a death of anybody they care about or love,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:30:46.820
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
they find that extremely depressing.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:30:51.500
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
And I know people who feel that way
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:30:55.300
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
20, 30, 40 years later, they still want them back.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:30:58.420
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
So I mean, death is not something to celebrate,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:31:06.200
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
but we've lived in a world where people just accept this.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:31:11.820
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
Life is short, you see it all the time on TV,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:31:16.260
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
oh, life's short, you have to take advantage of it
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:31:18.340
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
and nobody accepts the fact that you could actually
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:31:21.340
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
go beyond normal lifetimes.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:31:23.860
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
But anytime we talk about death or a death of a person,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:31:27.940
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
even one death is a terrible tragedy.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:31:31.580
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
If you have somebody that lives to 100 years old,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:31:35.420
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
we still love them in return.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:31:39.000
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
And there's no limitation to that.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:31:43.820
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
In fact, these kinds of trends are gonna provide
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:31:47.660
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
greater and greater opportunity for everybody,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:31:52.000
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
even if we have more people.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:31:54.700
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
So let me ask about an alien species
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:31:57.100
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
or a super intelligent AI 500 years from now
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:32:00.320
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
that will look back and remember Ray Kurzweil version zero.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:32:03.060
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
Before the replicants spread,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:32:11.140
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
how do you hope they remember you
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:32:13.140
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
in Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy summary of Ray Kurzweil?
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:32:17.020
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
What do you hope your legacy is?
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:32:21.420
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
Well, I mean, I do hope to be around, so that's.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:32:24.120
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
Some version of you, yes.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:32:26.740
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
So.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:32:27.900
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
Do you think you'll be the same person around?
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:32:29.740
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
I mean, am I the same person I was when I was 20 or 10?
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:32:32.140
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
You would be the same person in that same way,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:32:37.020
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
but yes, we're different, we're different.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:32:39.780
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
All we have of that, all you have of that person
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:32:44.420
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
is your memories, which are probably distorted in some way.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:32:46.900
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
Maybe you just remember the good parts,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:32:53.700
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
depending on your psyche.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:32:55.860
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
You might focus on the bad parts,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:32:57.860
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
might focus on the good parts.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:32:59.740
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
Right, but I mean, I still have a relationship
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:33:02.820
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
to the way I was when I was earlier, when I was younger.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:33:06.500
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
How will you and the other super intelligent AIs
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:33:11.860
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
remember you of today from 500 years ago?
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:33:14.220
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
What do you hope to be remembered by this version of you
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:33:18.940
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
before the singularity?
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:33:22.860
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
Well, I think it's expressed well in my books,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:33:25.640
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
trying to create some new realities that people will accept.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:33:28.220
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
I mean, that's something that gives me great pleasure,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:33:32.620
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
and greater insight into what makes humans valuable.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:33:40.320
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
I'm not the only person who's tempted to comment on that.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:33:49.720
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
And optimism that permeates your work.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:33:57.220
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
Optimism about the future is ultimately that optimism
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:34:00.700
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
paves the way for building a better future.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:34:04.700
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
Yeah, I agree with that.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:34:06.780
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
So you asked your dad about the meaning of life,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:34:10.100
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
and he said, love, let me ask you the same question.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:34:15.360
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
What's the meaning of life?
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:34:19.260
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
Why are we here?
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:34:21.200
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
This beautiful journey that we're on in phase four,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:34:22.900
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
reaching for phase five of this evolution
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:34:26.900
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
and information processing, why?
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:34:32.540
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
Well, I think I'd give the same answers as my father.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:34:35.500
Ray Kurzweil: Singularity, Superintelligence, and Immortality | Lex Fridman Podcast #321
Because if there were no love,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0321-large.html#01:34:42.020
