Not surprising that today's New York Times article about the singularity launders bullshit for big tech with just enough skepticism for plausible deniability
More impressive: the article quotes 15 different people.
Sundar Pichai
Reid Hoffman
Bill Gates
Elon Musk
Sam Altman
Baldur Bjarnason
John von Neumann
Irving John Good
Hans Moravec
Ray Kurzweil
Rodney Brooks
Jerry Kaplan
Ryan Schaeffer
Eric Schmidt
Charlies Stross
Yes, every single one of them is a man.
What is singularity, sorry I am from England, we use English not this sort of jibberish. It is worst then 'unscheduled rapid disassembly' which Musks lot used to descript the fact the rocket blew up.

"According to the most popular version of the singularity hypothesis, I.J. Good's intelligence explosion model, an upgradable intelligent agent will eventually enter a "runaway reaction" of self-improvement cycles, each new and more intelligent generation appearing more and more rapidly, causing an "explosion" in intelligence and resulting in a powerful superintelligence that qualitatively far surpasses all human intelligence." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technological_singularity
Given the average Trump / GOP supporter it won't take much to surpass the IQ of those people.
