> not as near as the singulariati would have us believe.

I've seen the singularity described as "The Rapture for nerds", which is pretty apt. It's going to be amazing, the future is so bright, we won't have to worry about any problems plaguing mankind now, and it's just around the corner! Any day now! Aaaaaaany day now!

Exhausting. Maybe we'll get a future AI-run utopia a la The Culture. Maybe not.
