The reason it's a singularity is not because we can't predict past it: it's because it represents a point of rapidly accelerating growth in capability of AI, enabled by the fact that the AI itself is either modifying its own code, or creating the next generation of AI, which will be smarter, and able to create a smarter next generation, etc.
Humans not being able to accurately predict what comes next technologically isn't the singularity; it's just a basic truism, and has been for decades.
