Ray Kurzweil
by earl, 8052 days ago
"Ray Kurzweil was the principal developer of the first omni-font optical character recognition, the first print-to-speech reading machine for the blind, the first CCD flat-bed scanner, the first text-to-speech synthesizer, the first music synthesizer capable of recreating the grand piano and other orchestral instruments, and the first commercially marketed large vocabulary speech recognition."- (the/one of the?) person(s) behind kurzweilAI.net

Author of [create The Age Of Spiritual Machines], strong believer in the concept of [create Singularity] and definitely in the strong AI camp.
- "One Half An Argument" is Kurzweil's answer to Jaron Laniers paper; both were published at edge.
