More nine stuff …
9 x 3 = 27, and 2 + 7 = 9

Multiply nine by any two, three or four-digit number and the sums of those digits will also break down to nine. For example: 9×62 = 558; 5+5+8=18; 1+8=9.

9 x 2 = 18 (1 + 8 = 9)
9 x 3 = 27 (2 + 7 = 9)
9 x 4 = 36 (3 + 6 = 9)
9 x 5 = 45 (4 + 5 = 9)
9 x 6 = 54 (5 + 4 = 9)

Fourteen challenges were announced at the annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in Boston last week.

Panel experts included Google founder Larry Page; genome pioneer Dr. Craig Venter; and inventor of optical character recognition, text-to-speech synthesis and speech recognition technology — Ray Kurzweil.

Kurzweil predicted “that we will have both the hardware and the software to achieve human level artificial intelligence with the broad suppleness of human intelligence including our emotional intelligence 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.

Kurzweil also predicted …
“We’ll have intelligent nanobots go into our brains through the capillaries and interact directly with our biological neurons.” Nanobots will “make us smarter, remember things better and automatically go into full emergent virtual reality environments through the nervous system.”
