I have set the date 2045 for the &#8216;Singularity&#8217; which is when we will multiply our effective intelligence a billion fold by merging with the intelligence we have created,\u201d Kurzweil had told <em>Futurism<\/em> in 2017, as quoted by <em>New York Post<\/em>.At the recent interview with the YouTuber, Kurzweil talked about nanotechnology and robotics which he believes will give birth to age-reversing &#8216;<a data-ga-onclick=\"Inarticle articleshow link click#Magazines#href\" href=\"https:\/\/economictimes.indiatimes.com\/topic\/nanobots\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">nanobots<\/a>&#8216;. As per former Google engineer, these tiny robots will constantly keep fixing damaged cells and tissues that start to deteriorate as we age, making us immune to lethal diseases. This isn&#8217;t the first time that this scientist has made a prediction. In 1990, Kurzweil had predicted that the world&#8217;s best chess player would lose to a computer by 2000. The prediction came true in 1997 when Deep Blue beat Gary Kasparov. <\/p>\n<p>Later in 1999, he made another prediction stating that by 2023, a laptop worth $1,000 would have storage capacity and capabilities of a human brain. Kurzweil, an author who calls himself a futurist, had also predicted that by 2010, most of the world would have access to high-bandwidth wireless internet.<\/p>\n<p>Well, what do you think about Kurzweil\u2019s prediction on immortality?
