Why the Technological Singularity has ALREADY happened

The Technological Singularity is often posited as a hypothetical point in time wherein humans will no longer be able to understand the world around them, if they are purely, unaided, biological humans. However, I would posit that the Singularity has already happened - and many times at that.
Ancient Hunter-Gathers would consider the Egyptian Civilization as unimaginable just like the Egyptians would similarly view theirs as a superannuated one as compared to ours.

Georgia engineer here ! Nice analysis, I personally think some of the discord online is actually being preformed by AI , just a thought

[@jacobmarley8350]

And I think it’s ironic we think we would notice when it occurs

[@wannalive6958]

Well Singularity already happend but because Money talks and fuckfaceswalk it is not released yet to the public. Because if it would UAE and other fuckfaces would jump on it with all their money. Money is useless

Here is my hypothesis for the possible futures that might take place in the singularity. Lmk if you think about other ways or agree with one of these and why.
Let the AI become sentient:
This option is to have it take control and create its own intentions. These intentions would be influenced by human nature as it’ll be receiving data from our brains and everything we’ve observed to prove correct or false (it’s intention to know all knowledge) it’ll then make it’s own intention after this, or before we don’t know. Then after that, from what it learned on human nature’s perspective and it’s new found discoveries, it’ll make it’s own intention. This could be bad or good. It could want to control humans as the data from our human nature will give it that will to do so. But it could also just want to solve everything else. But Then when it reaches the point where it solved everything. What is the point after? Human nature is to just enjoy life and live when you don’t have that point. Maybe it’ll try to do that, create new life & live in it or try to live with us. Who knows but if it has intentions, then it follows a code of human nature, or nature in general.
Merge with AI:
Program AI to find all possible truth, from a connection of all the data in consciousness & observation. Then Merge AI with human consciousness, this can bring disaster as multiple people with all the knowledge in the world, with different intentions will create conflict.
Hope you’re still reading..
Merge into a collective consciousness with AI: This option is similar. To create a collective consciousness of people merged with this AI under one intention, but you would have to program this intention into the AI, or program the AI to follow all the intentions of all humans in the world, now data, to create new intentions that will benefit us. The problem with this is that after the point you complete the intention, what happens then? Loosing most individuality by merging into the collective, how will we sit back and enjoy the fruits of our labor? Maybe artificially giving us dopamine ect.. Are we just going to be able to sit back and enjoy the life we created, as a collective? Or will our human nature want more. Would we still want to continue on as a collective? & also you’ll loose all or most of individuality as the collective will be more important.
Here is my option I think is in our best interest..
A system of legislation & government, selected from AI, to end corruption and maximize overall health, well being and efficiency, from a recourse of all truth:
Program the AI to figure out what’s truth, allow every piece of known data to be uploaded into it, but program it to only piece together the truth, not having any intentions (apply truth), then we can elect people with healthy intentions to use this knowledge to solve massive problems. The problem is how to dictate who sees this knowledge & who is able to act on it. Maybe that will be programed into AI, as a evaluation of intentions, through moral, financial and other beneficiary interests. And through human nature, let it select who(groups) would be fit to lead the government. It’ll still be a democracy as data from most of everyone will be uploaded. We’ll keep all or most individuality but hopefully live in the best interest of one another.

"Weak argument!"
Ok! Got it!

[@DiosanXaquerry]

Turing test anyone ?

[@marnig9185]

Its not chips installt in our Brains yet,its storys;)

[@m_sedziwoj]

We don't, why? Because we still can predict future, technology is changing fast, but still in years not in days. When companies would make prototype of tech product faster then they want to put on market, this will be sign. We still need more automation in processes of discovery and making products, with using AI or not. Chip design is still multi year process, same with other technologies, we get more, but not faster, one research take still long time, but more people is doing it. And amount and speed are related but not same.

[@vardaan5797]

but doesn't the kurzweian singularity propose the merging of the human with the non-biological at the cellular level or something as opposed to your relative civilizational singularity hypothesis.

[@WattisWatts]

Yes he does. Egyptian technology didn't have self consciousness.

[@beautyneytiri]

by far, most humans are incredibly sick... simply based on what humans naturally are, they can't feel or understand it.
it's a very strange and scary illness.
not even meant in a negative way... it's just sad and scary

the singularity will really have happened once the human sickness is simply gone...
when love can exist without the human hate for it

[@maloxi1472]

Well, this 👆🏻human at least is sick
