What do you think about singularity?

Question

As we all know that singularity is coming very soon, and as a well know Google futurist said that singularity will occur by 2029! so what do you all think about it! I personally think that singularity will make our lives much more easier, but I just want to know opinions of other people! so tell me what do you think about Singularity?

Answer 1

Ah a Vernor Vinge fan? I actually posed the question to him regarding what if intelligence has an upper bound. The singularity is pretty much impossible if humans are theoretically at the apex of the intelligence spectrum. I doubt the singularity would ever come to fruition in our time but if there are unethical AI designers out there I could see it eventually coming to fruition through poor design choices.
