I agree with you, but then disagree with you. You first make the point that the definition of the singularity is that what happens on other side is unknowable, then in the next sentence you make hard predictions. I get what you’re saying, but I’d change your language to say that ‘the mythical utopia MAY NOT occur….or MAYBE it will 🤷🏻‍♂️ we literally can’t know’

I believe the mythical utopia is forever unobtainable for legacy humans even after the technological singularity, due to our very make-up. However, for those of us who choose to move into the infinite realm beyond human (which the singularity will make possible), all bets are off.

Love that response. And I think I agree. Thanks!
