"Exclusive: a long and unique interview with Socrates: my journey to singularity and beyond"

Nikola Danaylov - founder of the superb blog Singularity 1 on 1 (https://www.singularityweblog.com/)- is in the Netherlands for the first time for a very long and deep interview with Yuri van Geest. Nikola is one of the top minds in the world on Singularity from day 1.

If you wanted a fundamental and existential discussion on the foundations and ethical, social, societal, cultural and economic implications of the Singularity, robots, AI, (un)employment and Singularity University itself, THIS IS IT!

In the last 5 years Nikola has interviewed more than 180 Singularity and Exponential Technologies thought leaders across the globe. Stunning! Cutting edge and top notch gurus and experts like:

• Michio Kaku

• Ray Kurzweil

• Jeremy Rifkin

• Kevin Warwick (first Cyborg)

• Seth Godin

• Kevin Kelly

• Stephen Wolfram

• Vernor Vinge (founder of Technological Singularity)

• Cory Doctorow

• Ramez Naam

• Vitalik Buterin (Founder Ethereum / blockchain)

• Hiroshi Ishiguro

• Frank Tipler (movie Interstellar!)

• Noam Chomsky

• Marvin Minsky

• Ed Boyden

• Peter Diamandis

Synopsis: Join us for a unique 2,5 hour (!!) in depth interview with Q&A with Nikola Danaylov - aka Socrates, where he will share his personal story of leaving Bulgaria, attending Singularity University and becoming the biggest independent blogger and podcaster on topics such as the singularity, AI and transhumanism. Furthermore, Nikola will discuss the importance of ethics and will share some of the personal lessons he's learned along his journey. Finally, true to his moniker, Socrates will engage into some provocative deconstruction: Derrida said that "deconstruction is about cracking nuts" and, since the two juiciest nuts in our community are the technological singularity in general and Singularity University in particular, those are the nuts Nikola will attempt to crack... expect some surprises!

CU all November 17th in Rotterdam!
