Another symptom of progress toward the Singularity: ideas themselves should spread ever faster, and even the most radical will quickly become commonplace.

How will the approach of the Singularity spread across the human world view?

But if the technological Singularity can happen, it will.

The problem is not simply that the Singularity represents the passing of humankind from center stage, but that it contradicts our most deeply held notions of being.

IA is something that is proceeding very naturally, in most cases not even recognized by its developers for what it is.

I have argued above that we cannot prevent the Singularity, that its coming is an inevitable consequence of the humans' natural competitiveness and the possibilities inherent in technology.
