 Hawking in Space.

"... I am sure that during the next century, people will discover how to modify both intelligence, and instincts like aggression.

Laws will be passed, against genetic engineering with humans. But some people won't be able to resist the temptation, to improve human characteristics, such as size of memory, resistance to disease, and length of life. Once such super humans appear, there are going to be major political problems, with the unimproved humans, who won't be able to compete. Presumably, they will die out, or become unimportant. Instead, there will be a race of self-designing beings, who are improving themselves at an ever-increasing rate.

Neil Jacobstein, co-chair of the AI and Robotics at singularity university. Filmed during the November 2009 Executive Program at Singularity University.

The founder of Palm, Jeff Hawkins, solves the mystery of Artificial Intelligence and presents his theory at the RSA Conference 2008. He gives a brief tutorial on the neocortex and then explains how the brain stores memory and then describes how to use that knowledge to create artificial intelligence. This lecture is insightful and his theory will revolutionize computer science.

Futurist Ian Pearson talks about how new technologies, such as devices that talk to each other, artificial intelligence that tells us what to do and high-speed connections available in any place at any time, will make our lives easier in 2020. But as we solve old problems, we create new ones.

Great Minds, Great Words: Carl Sagan - Pale Blue Dot. A Vision of Human Future in Space.

The Pale Blue Dot is a photograph of planet Earth taken in 1990 by Voyager 1 from a record distance, showing it against the vastness of space. By request of Carl Sagan, NASA commanded the Voyager 1 spacecraft, having completed its primary mission and now leaving the solar system, to turn its camera around and to take a photograph of Earth. It was subsequently used by Sagan as the title of his 1994 book of the same name.

KBSI has established a reputation for excellence in turning research results into innovative commercial technologies. KBSI has been awarded a number of major research and development contracts. An early success that helped develop some of the company's infrastructure methods and tools was the Information Integration for Concurrent Engineering (IICE) project, conducted for the U.S. Air Force. KBSI's research solutions were then systematically and aggressively transitioned to state-of-the-art software products—products that have benefited users worldwide.
