Guest: Ray Kurzweil In the next couple of decades, computers will achieve something like "conscious" intelligence - the ability to understand and reason like humans. And, according to computer scientist and inventor Ray Kurzweil, some of us will be downloading our brains into computers in the ultimate "man meets machine" scenario. Kurzweil joins us to discuss his book, The Age of Spiritual Machines: When Computers Exceed Human Intelligence, and the endless possibilities that the future holds.
