Michio Kaku on the Intelligence Revolution

Artificial Intelligence

Dr. Kaku explains how he believes artificial intelligence will revolutionize the world. Also, Kaku investigates virtual reality technology and its potential. Controversially, Kaku documents the work of scientists using a combination of artificial intelligence and neuroscience technology transform a person suffering from major depressive disorder into one who is happy and content by the push of a button.

I n this episode from the BBC's Visions of the Future, in 2007, theoretical physicist and futurist Michio Kaku shows how, in the 21st century, artificial intelligence is going to become as ubiquitous as electricity, how robots with human-level intelligence may finally become a reality, and how we'll even be able to merge our minds with machine intelligence.

As the challenges and choices are literally mind-bending, Dr Kaku asks how far we will ultimately go. —
