  • Neuromancing singularity : from cyberpunk to GNR technologies
    Krevel, Mojca
    Abstract: This paper offers an analysis of William Gibson's 1984 cyberpunk classic Neuromancer from the perspective of the future as proposed by Ray Kurzweil in his 2005 The Singularity Is Near: When ... Humans Transcend Biology. Relying upon the developments in 1990s and 2000s technology and science, Kurzweil, a renowned artificial intelligence expert and futurologist, charted future evolutionary development to the point of merging biological and non-biological intelligence, i.e., "singularity". Neuromancer was written at a time when the concepts crucial to Kurzweil's vision of the future were practically non-existent. It is therefore remarkable how closely the reality in the novel corresponds to Kurzweil's predictions. In my paper I first present the degree of correspondence between Kurzweil's informed projections and the invented concepts in Gibson's 1984 novel. I then explain the similarities in terms of the hitherto established governing principles of the postmodern epoch.
