SINGULARITY UPDATE: Machines could ultimately match human intelligence, says Intel CTO. “The notion of a technological ‘singularity,’ a time when machines match and surpass human intellect, has been popularized by thinkers such as inventor and author Raymond Kurzweil, who commonly cites Moore’s Law in his arguments about the exponential growth of technology. Rattner’s views on the singularity are sought after, given that he is CTO of the world’s biggest chipmaker and the head of Intel Labs, the company’s primary research arm.”
