Ray Kurzweil was a name you hear a lot, but this was the first time I have ever seen or heard him speak.
He is a bit of an anomaly. Lot of opinions, but not many facts or substance backing them up. Nevertheless, he has been right about the advancement rates of technology. He just wasn't able to articulate very well why. He came off like someone that can see the results of technology, has opinions, but has no actual idea or knowledge of how it all works.
Contrast that with an Elon, who seemingly knows everything about everything, down to an engineering level. Regardless of his track record, Kurzweil doesn't pass the bullshit test when he makes wild predictions.
