Biological evolution is too slow for the human species. Over the next few decades, it's going to be left in the dust.

We only have to capture 1/10,000th of the solar energy landing on earth to completely satisfy all our energy needs.

We'll be able to have very intelligent, little robots with computers going inside our bloodstream, keeping us healthy from inside, destroying cancer at the level of one cell.

Science fiction is the great opportunity to speculate on what could happen. It does give me, as a futurist, scenarios.

[In] 2029, I think, computers will match and exceed human intelligence in the ways we're now superior, like being funny, where we still have an edge.

Death gives meaning to our lives. It gives importance and value to time. Time would become meaningless if there were too much of it.

Humans feel deeply the suffering of their friends and allies and easily discount/dismiss the comparable experience of their enemies.
