It's been 20 years away for the past 60 years. Now it's only 10 years away.

- izzydata 8y agoSo we are only 30 years from it being 5 years away?
- FlyMoreRockets 8y agoCommercial fusion will coincide with the Singularity.
- TeMPOraL 8y agoAs expected. It's often forgotten that acceleration of technology caused by runaway recursively-improving AI would require rapidly increasing availability of energy - after all, something has to power all this tech. Who knows, maybe lack of fusion power is the one thing that'll delay the singularity? :).

- jungler 8y agoThis used to be the joke with solar power too. After decades of being 10 years away it became "5 years away but we're subsidizing it now" and just like that, it started scaling out to viability.
- londons_explore 8y agoMore like It's been 60 years away for the past 60 years. Now it's only 50 years away.
- jug 8y agoThe time remaining is an asymptotic curve never quite reaching 0, right...
