  • Writing the Future
    Krevel, Mojca
    The chapter examines William Gibson's 1984 cyberpunk classic Neuromancer from the perspective of the future as proposed by Ray Kurzweil in his 2006 The Singularity Is Near: When Humans Transcend ... Biology. Basing his predictions 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, many of which have already proven accurate. The chapter begins with an outline of Kurzweil's main postulates and their most probable development, which is followed by a detailed analysis of Gibson's novel in the light Kurzweil's informed projections. The chapter concludes with an explanation of the high degree of correspondence between the worlds charted in the books in terms of the hitherto established governing principles of the postmodern epoch.
