"The first two decades of the 21st century will be the golden age of biotechnology, featuring tissue engineering, the immortalization of cells and organs using telomeres, rational drug design, simulations replacing animal testing, and the repair of genetic defects."
"The third and fourth decades will be the golden age of bionanotechnology, in which biology and nanotechnology will meld. 'Nanotech is behind biotech, but consider the law of accelerating returns. We will make progress equivalent to that of the whole 20th century in the next 15 years,' Kurzweil predicts."
"'Progress in the 21st century will be equivalent to 20,000 years of progress at today’s rate of progress."
"Because it is the nature of the nonbiological intelligence to grow exponentially, it will eventually dominate."
