- Tracy R. Atkins on Aeternum Ray: Don’t Wait For The SingularityTracy R. Atkins is not only a contributor to Singularity Weblog but also the author of a brand new singularity book titled Aeternum Ray. Aeternum Ray is rather unique because it is openly and whole-heartedly utopian in character. It is written in the epistolary literary tradition of classic science fiction works such as Frankenstein and […]54 min
- James Hughes on Citizen Cyborg: Interrogate and Engage the WorldDr. James Hughes is not only the executive director of the Institute for Ethics and Emerging Technologies (IEET) but also a well-known book author and transhumanist. I enjoyed having him on the show and will probably ask him to return. During our conversation with Dr. Hughes, we cover a wide variety of topics such as […]1 hr 3 min
- Marco Santini on The Alpha Centauri Project: There Is A Lot Of Space For Rational OptimismThe first time that I looked at The Alpha Centauri Project by Marco Santini, I was struck by the book’s dedication: To he who explores new horizons, because knowledge doesn’t have limits, to he who tries new ways, because dreams become reality, to he who pursues brotherhood, because peace is not a chimera. Having read such […]23 min
- Ray Kurzweil on How To Create A Mind: Be Who You Would Like To BeRay Kurzweil‘s impact on my life in general but especially on what I have been doing for the past 3 or 4 years is hard to exaggerate. It is a simple fact that, if I haven’t read his seminal book The Singularity is Near, I would be neither blogging nor podcasting about exponential technologies, not to […]1 hr 4 min
- Cory Doctorow on AI: The Singularity Is A Progressive ApocalypseCory Doctorow is one of my all-time most favorite science fiction writers. So it is no surprise I had so much fun interviewing him. I don’t know how he does it, but Cory is one of those rare individuals who can juggle successfully being a father, an avid reader, a blogger, an activist, a journalist, […]46 min
- Transhumanism 101 with Natasha Vita-MoreTranshumanism is both misunderstood and feared. Ignorant people with an ideological agenda have labeled it “the most dangerous idea.” I thought that it was time to bring some basic intellectual clarity on the topic, and who is better prepared to help us do that than “the first female philosopher of transhumanism”!? Dr. Natasha Vita-More has already […]57 min
- Intel’s Futurist Brian David Johnson: Don’t Let The Future Happen To You!“When it comes to the future, there are three kinds of people: those who let it happen, those who make it happen, and those who wonder what happened.” [John M. Richardson, Jr.] Brian David Johnson – Intel’s futurist and principal engineer with 25 patents behind his back, is without any doubt one of those who really […]55 min

Formerly a senior manager in the European Space Agency, Prisco is a physicist and computer scientist who started his career at CERN. Giulio is an avid advocate of cryonics.

He is well known for inventing the Futures Wheel technique and, among many other things, is also the primary author on their annual state of the future report and editor of futures research methodology. Thus, when Jason Ganz suggested that I invite Jerome on Singularity 1 […]49 min
- Jim Harris on Blindsided: Change is Inevitable, Embrace It!Jim Harris is one of North America’s foremost management consultants, public speakers, authors, and thinkers on change and leadership. He is also another local Canadian thought leader that I discovered during the World Future 2012 conference where Jim made the closing keynote speech. His speech was so entertaining, informative, and illuminating that I instantly decided to invite […]49 min
About Singularity.FM
From the publisher's feed
Singularity.FM was the first singularity podcast in the world. It is the place where we interview the future and technology meets ethics: an open conversation about the impact of exponential tech, accelerating change, and the choices we make. It helps us identify the full spectrum of unprecedented dangers and opportunities and give birth to our own ideas about the best way to create a better future, a better you.
Singularity.FM is a series of interviews with the best scientists, writers, entrepreneurs, filmmakers, philosophers, and artists. We discuss the technological singularity, transhumanism, artificial intelligence, life extension, genetics, robotics, nanotech, synthetic biology, cryptocurrencies, and ethics: because technology is not enough!
Past guests of this singularity podcast include people such as Ray Kurzweil, Peter Diamandis, Noam Chomsky, Natasha Vita-More, Stuart Hameroff, Marvin Minsky, Aubrey de Grey, Max More, Michio Kaku, Vernor Vinge, Cory Doctorow, Charles Stross, and many, many others.
