Slashdot mentioned the TED conference earlier, but I didn't find Kurzweil's talk. The tuition is very steep ($25,000 for nine weeks), but I suppose if you have that much money to spend on summer school, you may just be influential enough to make the singularity actually happen.

Also, why does the string "Chancellor Raymond Kurzweil" scare me?
