That's not how science works. A singularity would only have the amount of information already available to humankind along with any connections between the parts of that information. To gain new information that mankind doesn't already have, it would need to run actual physical experiments to obtain empirical data, which would take time and resources.

Saying that the singularity means automatic scientific infinity is equivalent to assuming that all a scientist does is think really really hard until he or she discovers something. Again:
>That's not how science works.

love it how singularitarians never consider the possibility that when we finally get the super-intelligent AI the only thing left for it to do might be to tell us definitely and conclusively that we are fucked and there's little to be done about it.
