Everything You Need to Know About AI Reaching Singularity
A Scientist Says Humans Will Reach the Singularity Within 21 Years
A Far Reach?
Reckon AI can do it?
show us viable fusion power and we’ll go with it

Look up…

technicality but then death is a form of singularity too so yeah we could believe that will come for some humans in 20 years
What will this singularity entail, in concrete terms? What test can be applied to tell whether we’re there?

Given that most of the “artificial intelligence” so far consists of regurgitating human learning, and they struggle to get that right, I suspect these end times are somewhat premature.

good answer, so what you mean is that singularity would entail artificial intelligence that is not regurgitating human learning, and that should be simple to test by not being able to find a human learning that matches the output, makes sense
I think all that is required for it to happen faster is for people – on average – to become more stupid, AI appear as if it equals humans sooner, and then accelerates past
so some useful mind viruses to that end, probably already in circulation
ideological worship of AI likely be the end game
a peculiarity of technology is just how effective it can be at amplifying stupid, few of the stupid would believe it a possibility, so it’s a trap of sorts, unintentional really, unintentional stupid is sort of innocent, keeps it casual, casual stupid
and how stupid is the term singularity

also a good point, in astrophysics the singularity is in a black hole which is collapse, so in artifintel the singularity is also a collapse, makes sense

Much truth in that.
One strategy for being a ‘good listener’ is to repeat back to the speaker the things that they’re saying. Maybe in a slightly different way, but providing to them confirmation that you’re listening, and that that it’s ok for them to be saying what they’re saying.
hence Eliza
well that was an interesting aside
Weizenbaum’s own secretary reportedly asked Weizenbaum to leave the room so that she and ELIZA could have a real conversation. Weizenbaum was surprised by this, later writing: “I had not realized … that extremely short exposures to a relatively simple computer program could induce powerful delusional thinking in quite normal people.”
there you go does singularity count as taking 48 years to go from this above, to {the use of extremely short exposures to a relatively simple computer program to induce powerful delusional thinking in quite normal* people to the extent that they voluntarily select extinction}
*: arguable but given it’s the bulk of USSAoles we suppose the standard distribution applies

I wondered about that
We talk about AI been exponentially smarter and faster than humans
We could create stupid AI’s as some sort of tool to make us feel superior or a buddy to talk to when we are drunk or high.

I have an idea that’s what drugs (alcohol included) do, sort of a chemical lobotomy, done often enough it becomes permanent
Hear the sound of a singularity
