Superintelligence and Singularity
The key idea underlying the impending Singularity is that the pace of change of our human‐created technology is accelerating and its powers are expanding at an exponential pace. This chapter argues that within several decades information‐based technologies will encompass all human knowledge and proficiency, ultimately including the pattern‐recognition powers, problem‐solving skills, and emotional and moral intelligence of the human brain itself. It emphasises the exponential‐versus‐linear perspective because it's the most important failure that prognosticators make in considering future trends. Most technology forecasts and forecasters ignore altogether this historical exponential view of technological progress.
