Singularity WILL NOT happen in our lifetime. We were born just *barely* too early. We will not see an end to aging, we will not see AGI, we will not make it to mars, and we will not see improvement of human intelligence through gene-editing and other biological means. The anthropic principle gave us this extremely unlikely chance of us being ourselves, and granted us the gift of sapience and intelligence, but decided to just BARELY cuck us on the probability distribution by making us born a couple of decades to early.

And what's worse is that we have a bunch of people here who have deluded themselves into thinking we actually have a shot at singularity, and are now giving credence to Kurzweilian arguments.

Ray Kurzweil is losing it and has deluded himself into thinking that he will be immortal and that AI will transcend human general intelligence in the year 2045, and is now taking a bunch of pills to try to make it there. He is just coping at this point. It's all very sad. I don't hate Ray or any of you singularity posters; I understand why you feel this way and want to be optimistic. It's all rooted in psychology. I just think it's sad how hard everyone is coping and having false promises. We got cucked. We got completely and utterly cucked. It's like being 1 point away from passing the most important exam.

It sucks anons, but we're in this together. At least our grandchildren will get to be a part of it.

Its downhill from here. There will be no singularity. Things will slowly get worse.
Intelligent people might self segregate and continue research in gated communities, maybe for another 150-200 years.
But by then theyll all be raided and a new dark age will have dawned.

This is only valid if 1) the possible universes is ultimately finite, i.e. everything is pixelated, segmented, and ultimately quantifiable (planck only provides the smallest measurements), AND 2) the possible state of said "pixels" is finite, i.e. nothing fundamentally needs to be how it is.

Come on Thursday I decided to invest in a lifetime subscription to her premium snapchat, for the sum of $500. That might not sound like a lot to you today but back then it was no measly amount. Unfortunately, shortly afterwards the infamous Thot Audit occurred and she deleted all her social media accounts. I couldn't message her. I was down $500 with rent coming up soon.

Satanic trips confirm, but notice the term peak of HUMANITY'S achievement, the singularity is not a human achievement, it is an ai driven achievement. Once technological progress is driven by technology rather than man, things will go truly exponential and technological progress will go vertical, progress and changes that would have taken decades will occur on the time-span of days, then hours, then minutes eventually culminating in the return of god

Peak is the wrong term on it's own, otherwise it'd only go down after that "peak" since it'd be the highest point (the summit, the "peak"), which means we'd be stuck with shitty AIs everywhere and your "give the job to the rubutz duh" would only stay in the same world string /theory/ is in

i think its allot more likely then anyone thinks.
its allot easyer to fix age related deseses like cancer, alzheimer, artritis,.... before they happen then trying to fix each one of them ceparately.

there are already studies that turned human cells into previous stages (made them younger)


ther real anthropy only happn in our DNA because its a lossy carier of information, it get worse after each copy if, we can find a way to make it lossless we would have fixed aging
