like maybe an ai singularity is possible. but you certainly shouldn't conclude that based on the evidence we have imo

@shoofle to steal mcc's material, the singularity already happened thousands of years ago when humans started developing writing systems during the late bronze age, which allowed them to use technology (clay tablets, etc) to augment their intelligence (keep track of wheat). this resulted in the gradual invention of new technologies (books, printing presses, increasing elaborate methods of etching) that in turn made the humans smarter and smarter each time

my views on the singularity mirror my views on the end of the world, namely: there's no such thing or it's already happening all the time

i guess this makes sense because the singularity is just a particular flavor of end of the world

@shoofle and, now we are at a point where our ability to propagate information to one another has greatly exceeded our present ability to filter it, which creates new exciting existential challenges. are we cooked like an overclocked pentium or will we able to persevere against the tide of lies and bullshit? find out on the next episode of Humanity
