Meet UT's Next Constitutional Law Professor.

From Equire's interview with Jeb Bush, we learn that Glenn Reynolds' desire to have sex with robots is not, uh, singular.

Says Jeb:

I'm reading a wild book. It's The Singularity Is Near. [The Singularity Is Near: When Humans Transcend Biology, by Ray Kurzweil] The book is about how technology is going to overtake the human mind. There's basically like an L-shaped advancement that's going to take place. There's a convergence of our own intellectual capacities and technology. There's going to be a merger, and we're going to, this guy believes, live in an era of unbelievable intelligence and advancement. It's wild.


I bet.
