Singularity.FM — Podcasting
Singularity.FM

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.

Arthur Traviss Corry: Give Bitcoin a Try! Jul 31, 2014

Some will say that Bill Andrews is totally crazy – at 61 he runs an average of 10 miles per day and at least one 100-mile marathon per month. He also wants to “Cure Ageing or Die Trying”. No wonder Bill is one of the 2 main protagonists of a new documentary about life extension aptly […]

David Alvarado and Jason Sussberg on Making “The Immortalists” Jun 24, 2014

In my opinion, The Immortalists is the frankest, most open-minded, and uniquely personal documentary about life extension in general and Aubrey de Grey and Bill Andrews, in particular. I was privileged to attend its international premiere during the Hot Docs Film Festival in Toronto, Canada, and instantly knew that I have to interview David Alvarado […]

Vitalik Buterin: Ethereum is a Decentralized Consensus Platform Jun 05, 2014

Show notes

Digital crypto-currencies such as Bitcoin are the singularity of money, and after spending some time educating myself, I have turned from a skeptic into a fan.

Ed Boyden: Let’s Bring Engineers into Studying the Brain May 06, 2014

I met Prof. Ed Boyden at last year’s Global Future 2045 conference in New York.

And so I knew instantly […]
