Have We Reached the Singularity?

2 phoenixhaber 3 8/27/2025, 4:27:59 AM

Serious question. The singularity is broadly defined as when technological innovation becomes self iterating and exponential leading to an ever faster expansion of innovation.

I see no reason to think so.

If you're talking about LLMs, it's not self iterating at all, and actually chokes on its own vomit, and I don't see where its growth is exponential.

> point in time at which technological growth becomes alien to humans, uncontrollable and irreversible

The worst we could have is if those Ghibli generators were flooding the internet by themselves but it's not happening yet.

What they call singularity seems to be a philosophical concept, and the AI-pushers have not grasped that, blinded by all their money.

phoenixhaber · 8h ago

The new agentic AI boards that you can buy seem to be self iterating as in you can have them begin to iterate and improve their own output. Theoretically we may reach a point rather soon where we say "what hardware is required to improve your intelligence/data processing capability - design the output" and the next iteration of the machine will be capable of doing so. We may quickly become resource constrained but that's what I had in mind when I was talking about the singularity.
