This is what contributors have logged — not everything Ray Kurzweil has said. Counts, not a score. Every record is one tap away, with the test that settled it. Third-party records here were added from public sources and verified against them; Ray Kurzweil did not submit or approve them, and being profiled is not an endorsement of Thonest.

We're going to replace that in about 5 years. We're structuring all the knowledge and we'll be able to create simulated humans. And not just a few hundred, we can create like a million humans, test it for several years, and do that, but actually simulate that in a few days.

So by 2032, we'll be able to go through all the different possibilities. So you'll get back at least a year. As you go past 2032, you'll actually get back more than a year, but you won't die of aging at that point.

I think we will have a UBI, and that's just a way of providing a basis, and people can actually live on that.
