Justin ColleryHOST
So it makes sense.
Justin ColleryHOST
That is just the Singularity Update.
Justin ColleryHOST
That is not the two main stories this week.
Justin ColleryHOST
But that's the stuff that's going on.
LambdaNARRATOR
Richness, even exuberance, never interferes with clearness.
LambdaNARRATOR
Singularity never degenerates into uncouth fantasticalness.
LambdaNARRATOR
The sculpturing is never disorderly.
LambdaNARRATOR
The luxury of ornament never overloads the chaste eloquence of the principal lines.
Beth LipmanGUEST
It'll be something else soon.
Beth LipmanGUEST
I mean, I find it so fascinating how the conversation has been so locked on AI for... for so long in a way too, even though it just started and maybe AGI is here, maybe it's not, who knows, right? But I mean, Singularity's here, maybe it's not, who knows.
Beth LipmanGUEST
But I do think, you know, given... how fast our attention span tends to kind of shift and change.
Beth LipmanGUEST
It, it's, if anything, it's, it's surprising how long a conversation has been going on.
Clarence FordHOST
Then we had Sam Altman, who recently declared on an episode of the Relentless podcast, we are now, and I'm quoting, we are now like in the singularity.
Clarence FordHOST
This is the moment.
Clarence FordHOST
Singularity refers to that point, of course, where this autonomous artificial superintelligence rapidly designs itself, leading to unpredictable intelligence explosions and outcomes.
Clarence FordHOST
And yeah, we are just kind of wrapping our head.
Clarence FordHOST
around the value of AI, and maybe even beginning to identify AI generated material from non AI generated material facts from fiction.
Mark SmithHOST
Yeah.
Mark SmithHOST
Singularity, the future, anything that's kind of mind-expanding, the possibilities or systems thinking, things like that, business, I'm into it.
Mark SmithHOST
What are you seeing from the inside?
Ashish BhatiaGUEST
Yeah.
Ben PetersonGUEST
Mm-hmm
Ginny YurichHOST
... who is, uh, the author of Singularity and-
Ben PetersonGUEST
Yeah
Ginny YurichHOST
...
ThomasGUEST
That might be the best way that the live action movie and the original anime are linked together in a very similar way of that.
ThomasGUEST
And by the way, it was Kurzweil said 2029 for AGI and 2045 for Singularity.
ThomasGUEST
So I had the date right.
ThomasGUEST
Well, I got the second date
MattHOST
wrong.
MattHOST
I said 47 or 48.
MattHOST
So yeah, in the ballpark at least, except I'd be too late for the Singularity.
MattHOST
The party would be over by then.
Alex VolkovHOST
Yeah, welcome.
Alex VolkovHOST
We've been reporting on the rise of Singularity throughout all this time, dude.
Alex VolkovHOST
And today is a very interesting day because the release got yanked.
Alex VolkovHOST
Like it was very clear based on the releases of different news outlets when it expired, the embargo.
Kenneth HiteHOST
But that's my white whale, my space amoeba, my one that got away for that one.
Darcy L. RossGUEST
And the name of my little zine, Singularity, a transhumanist dating show RPG.
Darcy L. RossGUEST
Yep, Josh Jordan.
Kenneth HiteHOST
Can't ask any better than that.
Nathan LabenzHOST
And at the same time, they also nailed with Astra RKGI three, which is a very different modality, you know, a, a much more sort of exploratory interactive mode of problem solving.
Nathan LabenzHOST
And yeah, to have both of these things in the same system, I'm pretty sure that if you came back to one of those early Singularity enthusiast events in the late 2000s, around 2010 timeframe, everybody would have agreed this is AGI.
Nathan LabenzHOST
I don't think you would have had too many dissenters that would have said, oh, well, what can it not do? And honestly, what can it not do? I don't think we've got great examples of that so far.
Nathan LabenzHOST
One thing I've noticed is kind of a conspicuous absence of the last, and maybe this is because access is still rolling out.
