Singularity ETA: any day now (since 1956)

Every decade, brilliant people predict superintelligence is 10 years away. We're 70 years in. It's still 10 years away. This is either very reassuring or very suspicious.

Your grandchildren will ask: "What's a job?"

The optimists and the doomers are both right

AI will cure cancer and create deepfake propaganda. Accelerate science and accelerate misinformation. The future is not a destination — it's a negotiation.
