"The Age of Spiritual Machines: When Computers Exceed Human
Intelligence"
by Ray Kurzweil
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0670882178/wendysmall
"Can an intelligence create another intelligence more
intelligent than itself?" asks author Ray Kurzweil. He
promptly answers his own question in this text that is less
of a prophetic work and more of a blueprint for the next 20
years in technology. One of the most renowned inventors of
our generation, Kurzweil has created the Kurzweil reading
machine, the Kurzweil synthesizer, and advanced speech
recognition, among other technologies. He believes that the
era of computers having emotions and artificial intelligence
is upon us. Rather than being daunting, "The Age of
Spiritual Machines" views these as positive elements in the
future of computing.
