Topics: Artificial Intelligence and The Singularity, Human Augmentation (especially the augmentation of connecting the Internet directly to the human mind), and their worry that we may have already gone too far. They also describe their documentary and their production company: TransAlchemy.com. Hosted by Stephen Euin Cobb, this is the December 2, 2009 episode of The Future And You.
