Federico Pistono is perhaps the youngest guest I have ever had on Singularity 1 on 1. Despite that, Federico is already a scientific educator, social activist, blogger, and aspiring filmmaker. More recently, he is the author of a book called Robots Will Steal Your Job, But That’s OK, and an incoming student to Singularity University. During our […]

Dr. Anders Sandberg is a well-known transhumanist, futurist, computational neuroscientist, and currently a research fellow at the Future of Humanity Institute at Oxford University. I have been thinking of inviting him on Singularity 1 on 1 for some time and when one of my readers actually asked me to do it I could not be happier […]

Karl Schroeder is one of those fantastic science fiction authors and futurists who, despite his numerous and profound books, have not quite made it into the mainstream yet. In fact, it was just a week ago that Eric Boyd emailed me to suggest that I interview Karl on Singularity 1 on 1, and I was […]

Yesterday I interviewed John Smart on Singularity 1 on 1. Among many other things, John is an advisor in Futures Studies and Forecasting for Singularity University where I met him last summer. He is also one of those rare people who are (literary) Smart since birth and totally justify the name. So it was no surprise […]

This is my second interview with Dr. Randal Koene for Singularity 1 on 1. Dr. Koene is perhaps one of the world’s foremost neuroscientists. He is director of analysis at Halcyon Molecular, co-founder of Carbon Copies, and co-founder of and director at the Neural Engineering Corporation of Massachusetts. Randal’s research objective is whole brain emulation, […]

A couple of days ago, I interviewed Australian James Harvey. James is unique among my guests because he was the first interviewee whose willingness to take a chance on a brand-new podcast helped me kick off Singularity 1 on 1. However, this is not the only thing that makes him different; James is also “a […]

Today I interviewed Prof. Linda MacDonald Glenn on Singularity 1 on 1. Linda is an American bioethicist, healthcare educator, lecturer, consultant, and attorney-at-law. Her academic research encompasses emerging technologies’ legal, ethical, and social impact and “evolving notions of personhood.” During our conversation with Prof. Glenn, we discuss a variety of topics such as the very personal and […]

This Monday I interviewed Dr. David Ferrucci on Singularity 1 on 1. David is the IBM team leader behind Watson – the computer that succeeded in dethroning humanity’s greatest ever Jeopardy champion – Ken Jennings. I met both Dr. Ferrucci and Ken Jennings during last year’s Singularity Summit where both of them spoke about Watson […]

Last week I interviewed Vivek Wadhwa on Singularity 1 on 1. I met Vivek last summer at Singularity University where he is the VP of academics and innovation. Vivek is one of those multi-talented and very outspoken people who are never afraid to take the risk and say what they think. He is also a […]
