The Singularity in 2045: a transformation forecast

A major change in human life can be imagined as beneficial, harmful or mixed. The calendar year alone does not say which. The entry now reflects the author’s positive framing instead of borrowing the word “singularity” as a catastrophe label.

A useful future assessment would specify which capabilities and social changes are meant. Otherwise different readers can declare victory or failure using different definitions.
