The Singularity Summit page is now open for registration.

We invite you to join our extraordinary group of visionaries in business, science, technology, design, and the arts, as our community explores this exciting topic. Your participation offers a world of powerful ideas, a unique networking opportunity, and access to an exclusive directory of your peers.

As I write this there are 22 speakers planned(!), including Ray Kurzweil, Marvin Minsky, Vernor Vinge and many other very special presenters.

There is also a business workshop on emerging technology, and lots of really great announcements, that still need firming up before announcement.

I must say, I’m really stoked about this year’s conference. This feels like a turning point in Artificial General Intelligence research – the year we will look back on as the when the tide turned from an undercurrent to a groundswell. Between announcements by Intel , overviews in the New York Times, and new focus from the government into artificial brains and thecognitive sciences , this can no longer be considered a fringe science.
