Summary

This document is page 261 of a book or manuscript titled 'Software' (or a chapter titled 'Software'), marked with the Bates stamp HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_015951, indicating it was part of the evidence produced for the House Oversight Committee's investigation into Jeffrey Epstein. The text is a philosophical and scientific discussion concerning Artificial Intelligence, arguing that human creativity (citing Roger Penrose and Andrew Wiles) cannot be simulated by machines. It concludes with an introduction to Ray Kurzweil's concept of 'the singularity.' This reflects Epstein's known interest in theoretical science, AI, and transhumanism.
