This volume provides a selection of authoritative essays exploring the central questions raised by the conjectured technological singularity. In informed yet jargon-free contributions written by active research scientists, philosophers and sociologists, it goes beyond philosophical discussion to provide a detailed account of the risks that the singularity poses human society and, perhaps most usefully, the possible actions that society and technologists can take to manage the journey to any singularity in a way that ensures it has a positive rather than negative impact in society. The discussions provide perspectives that cover technological political and business issues. The aim is to bring clarity and rigor to the debate in a way that will inform and stimulate both experts and interested general readers.
