Machines 'to match man by 2029
Humans and machines would eventually merge, by means of devices embedded in people's bodies to keep them healthy and improve their intelligence, predicted Mr Kurzweil.
"We'll have intelligent nanobots go into our brains through the capillaries and interact directly with our biological neurons," he told BBC News.
The nanobots, he said, would "make us smarter, remember things better and automatically go into full emergent virtual reality environments through the nervous system".

if they make it by 2029... perhaps even some of us on this board would qualify for such enhancements... I'd probably would not be able to resist any health/life prolonging solutions , this type of machine/human hybrid sounds bit scary however... but if we will be able to make it, it will surely be the way forward, if not in 2029... than surely over next few hundred years when such developments become viable...
isn't this type of development inevitable, perhaps eventually leading to immortality... eg. machines being good enough to repair all the damage of our regular biological life cycle
I'm up for that. being able to play CIV in my head in lectures.
