Editor's Notes
- The term singularity describes the moment when a civilization changes so much that its rules and technologies are incomprehensible to previous generations. Think of it as a point-of-no-return in history. Most thinkers believe the singularity will be jump-started by extremely rapid technological and scientific changes. These changes will be so fast, and so profound, that every aspect of our society will be transformed, from our bodies and families to our governments and economies. A good way to understand the singularity is to imagine explaining the internet to somebody living in the year 1200. Your frames of reference would be so different that it would be almost impossible to convey how the internet works, let alone what it means to our society. You are on the other side of what seems like a singularity to our person from the Middle Ages. But from the perspective of a future singularity, we are the medieval ones. Advances in science and technology mean that singularities might happen over periods much shorter than 800 years. And nobody knows for sure what the hell they'll bring. Talking about the singularity is a paradox, because it is an attempt to imagine something that is by definition unimaginable to people in the present day. But that hasn't stopped hundreds of science fiction writers and futurists from doing it. http://io9.gizmodo.com/5534848/what-is-the-singularity-and-will-you-live-to-see-it
- 2) Singularity technology is the self-replicating molecular machine, also called autonomous nanobots, "gray goo," and a host of other things. Basically the idea is that if we can build machines that manipulate matter at the atomic level, we can control our world in the most granular way imaginable. And if these machines can work on their own? Who knows what will happen. For a dark vision of this singularity, see Greg Bear's novel Blood Music or Bill Joy's essay "The Future Doesn't Need Us"; for a more optimistic vision, Rudy Rucker's Postsingular.

- Utopian Times Ahead? So the argument goes, beyond the Singularity we will be able to reprogram and control all forms of life and all modes of inorganic matter. Beyond the Singularity it ought therefore be possible for us to achieve many amazing and incredibly useful things. While by definition we cannot yet predict or understand what all such things could be, they may well include: The application of nanotechnology and/or synthetic biology to convert any kind of waste into food or other useful products. Directly powering human (and non-human) civilization from the Sun and other alternative energy sources. Controlling climate change (for example by constructing vast solar sails out in space or by building nanotech filtration plants to remove greenhouse gasses from the atmosphere). Very significant life extension, probably coupled with our proactive, transhuman evolution into a cybernetic species. The delivery of a high standard of living to ten billion or more human beings. Our conquest of space.

- If AI becomes better at designing AI than humans, we'll hit an intelligence explosion that "ultimately results in machines whose intelligence exceeds ours by more than ours exceeds that of snails," Hawking said in a recent Reddit AMA.
