The singularity definition on Wikipedia is a hypothetical future point when technological growth becomes uncontrollable and irreversible, resulting in unforeseeable changes to human civilization.

Speaks for itself. All the futuristic tech that we like to ponder about becomes reality. A lot of this will be AI driven because the computational power of computers continues to rise and eventually the future supercomputers will have the power of all human brains on the planet combined.

As far as when it will happen? Some acclaimed futurists like Kurzweil put it at 2045, lots of people in this community believe it will happen by the end of this decade, or next year or why not tomorrow (LOL). I put it around 2050. The sooner the better of course.

See, the good thing about an ASI is that it will have time for both the big things and the little details. That is what makes it an ASI.

So while it will be strip-mining Mercury to make a Dyson swarm it will also have enough time to individually plan your torture in exquisite detail, perfectly customised to your pain tolerance level.

Such is the wonder of ASI.

Why do you spam this in every single community even if it's barely related?

Damn, this is quite good !!

Good post thumbs up :)

Actual researched.

gen z realized the game is all bullshit and they're not willing to play. The collective progress of the species can't be used to lure them because it's a lie and they know it. Every second we waste studying and working serves just to make the rich even richer so they're able to afford having 18 year old bodies when they're 45 while we blue collar workers most of the time have 45 year old bodies when we're 18.

the world can go to shit. I just want to see the cylons taking over everything and ending this venomous killing machine we call the human.

The current internet already functions like a hive mind, and if it helps to pool our knowledge together in a more efficient manner than just reading books, why not

Im curious where will our income come from given that workers earning is the reason where the demand comes from as they contribute to the economy.

No

here we go ...

your not wrong, but just expecting later generations to do twice the work than the previous generation just to get hired somewhere is clearly not working out as we can see with the shortage in skilled staff. Yes, we have access to a lot of information, but there are many things the vast majority of people simply can't learn on their own in a reasonable timeframe. Just telling peoplt to git gud is clearly not the solution, we need to rethink how we teach people for fields like that.

Sadly a hive mind is the only way to align human values with an artificial supercomputer intelligence. I will do my patriotic duty if it is required. I imagine that together with the likes of Mr. Twitter and Sama we Hivers will be parabiologically linked to our clones. We will receive replacement organs now and then. Of course part of them will be fully synthetic implants. Once Mars is terraformed, we will say goodbye to Earth. Of course Mars will be full of supercomputers. Next a Dyson swarm.

I think there's no one steering the ship. Thinking it's all a big conspiracy is just more copium tbh, pretending that someone is in control even if they're some evil elite.

In reality the world system is too complex to steer like that.

I do recommend watching Adam Curtis' documentary series 'All Watched Over by Machines of Loving Grace,' it's all about this.

Because its not your taste, duh

This is one of those questions I find myself running away from instead of directly answering it.

Why would I want to listen to this tho?

How?

As you rightly said every company wants a skilled person. I personally think this is because in today's world, we young people (born after 2000) have access to sooo many things that we can easily become skilled enough to do a job.(I'm talking about an avg software engineer's job).

Now, on the other hand, AI, in particular, is really confusing even for employer(HR) in big tech companies(don't know much about startups or small companies). Most of the courses or BootCamp just teach about ML, but in the real-world AI is all about data, as an MLE 80% job would be in processing the data. I think here's where the problem is, the real-world project is way different from some projects like on Kaggle.

The problem is guidance, unfortunately we young people have to invest our loads of time doing mistakes & learning stuffs, being & doing smart work. I kind of agree with the companies because we should be expected to be more skilled than previous generation because the accessibilty we have & exposure to this technologies in early age.

Sorry if I'm wrong, I'm new to AI. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Weed.

Yeah Starbucks is a perfect substitute for libraries woo hoo.

Cool stuff!!!

Do you know of any way of generating vocals (like a vocaloid) that is any good in English?

I am actually dreaming about something like this, but in a purely digital/cybernetic/quantum/whatever machine type we will use by then way. No biological bodies attached to my mind, please. And yes, I‘d not want to have my own biological body attached either. Getting rid of it seems logical once we have overcome the problem of radiation damaging technology in space - then long distance space travel might finally be both doable and affordable and I would love to participate in that.

FAANG companies just laid off 100,000 tech people so this may not be such a problem soon.
