“The U.S. is more problematic because it is harder hit by a range of issues that kill people even before they hit old age, including drug overdoses, shootings, obesity and inequities that make it hard for some people to get sufficient medical care.”

      I don’t know which stupid book, because he’s written multiple stupid books, but I love the fact that 20 years ago, he wrote a book called “The Singularity is Near” and this year, he put out a book called, “The Singularity Is Nearer: When We Merge with AI.”

      I assume if he does happen to live another 20 years, “The Singular Is Nearerer” will come out.
