Conference organizers have extended the early registration deadline for the Singularity Summit from August 10th to August 20th. Register in the next 12 days for a ticket fee of $399 instead of $498. You can lower your registration costs further by mentioning the event in your blog or Twitter ($25 off), putting up a banner ad on your blog for the event ($50 off), or referring people (20% off per non-student referral).  The early registration discount is automatic.  For the referral discount, you must contact us for a coupon, and for the Twitter and blog discounts, you can let us know and get reimbursed by Paypal after registration.

Students receive a 20% discount.  There is also a forum to connect for ride and room sharing.  All discounts are stackable.  To obtain the student discount, all you need to do is click the student check-box and send us a copy of your student ID.

The Summit will feature 27 excellent speakers, including Ray Kurzweil, David Chalmers, Peter Thiel, Aubrey de Grey, and AI specialists like Ben Goertzel, Marcus Hutter, and Juergen Schmidhuber.  David Chalmers will be there talking about uploading, a rare occurrence.  Many speaker abstracts can be accessed by clicking the links to the  individual speakers on the program page.

See you in New York!
