Yeah, like someone is going to pay you and have your needs met without any effort from you! That’s not going to happen, AGI or no AGI 🤭

Have you learned nothing, my good sir/madam?

I would dive into electronics and repair stuff. Probably travel and eat all the weird fruits and veggies we don’t have here. I’d also set up a Skyhub and watch for uap. Practice throwing axes.

Can The Singularity itself understand itself?

> If you're actually smart

Not to put too fine a point on it, but I have met Eliezer and he is VERY smart.

Get better at juggling, more family time, more time raving

The "singularity" is just a time when technology is accelerating so fast that those of us in the current moment can no longer predict or imagine what might happen. It's more just a statement of acknowledging the limits of our current knowledge. To someone living 10,000 years ago, we've long since passed the singularity from their perspective.

If we assume for a second that Kurzweil is 100% right that the singularity is in 2045, it probably won't feel like that to us in 2045, it just looks like that from the perspective of 2023.

What people are tyring to get you to realise is that any message you receive from after the singularity right now will be unknowable, because it will come from a time that is fundamentally unknowable to you right now. DOes that make it clearer?

Play and/or watch Steins;Gate and Steins;Gate 0 for the answer to your question.

How, why, and in what manner does one present information to them without jeopardizing the timeline (assuming it can be jeopardized which may actually be possible)?

If one did receive cryptic messages from “the future” which eventually would become extremely relevant and useful for the individual to an extent where only a non scientific (as we currently understand it) reasoning could explain it, what do you do…..

I'd contact the Future Gadget Laboratory.

Singularity doesn't mean physically impossible stuff will happen. I don't think travelling in time to the past is possible even for a super advanced AI. Future time travel, maybe tho.

Because it’s where all things lead? A force like gravity? How can I inspire my thoughts?

Take a deep breath.

Now think REALLY HARD about why it’s called a singularity. Try hard.

Ok but is there anything one can do in the past that might be able to ameliorate problems that exist in the future like an investment “fund” that can be contributed to as a safety plan when the moment of future time travel intervention occurs so as to alter the suspected future of the future time traveler who may be facing an existential threat?

In other words if there is a time war in the future, what can someone in the past do to get a head start besides understanding the message from the Singularity?

No. Its just advanced technology. Very advanced.

Ok but is there anything you can tell me about the nature of the Singularity that could help one interpret that message better especially if parts of it are cryptic?

You dont the message was clearly for you. Do you tell people when you get a phone call too?

Play instruments, make art and music, spend time with friends and families, explore the world and hopefully others too.

I will build a simulated universe just like ours and play with my simulated humans

The good ending

Same here. This life, in its present form, is profoundly unkind.

Honestly, I would still be doing what I'm doing, except I would be writing the software that I want to write, instead of the software that some company wants me to write.

And the AI assistance would help my projects go way, way faster.

The U in UBI is universal. That would mean no one is allowed to have children.
