Weekly Wikipedia Find: Technological Singularity

Finally, we address the elephant in the room. Singularity. The singularity. The Singularity. It's coming. Time is fluid. It's already here. Maybe not temporally, but spatially.

You just shit your pants, right? That's alright. For when the Singularity comes, we'll all be shitting our pants. (But who'll be the one to change us all?)

"Comes"-- that's almost not the right word. Almost not even in the realm of being in the same sentence as the right word. "Happens", maybe. More simply, "is". The Singularity is. The Singularity bes.

The singularity is the hypothesized point in time, when technology, computers, artificial intelligence, surpasses human intelligence through rapid technological progress to the point of becoming a self-improving intelligence. It will be able to build its own successors, humans will be out of the picture. We having built our own successors, the Singularity. It's coming. If? When. It's here.
