It doesn't imply that. The singularity is just the inflection point.
- jsLavaGoat 18d agoSingularity and inflection point are incompatible mathematically and in the plain sense, it really is focused on a particular moment and always has been, hence the term. And it's definitely supposed to imply some kind of historical discontinuity not a change in convexity.
- Fordec 18d agoWhich assumes the presence of an inflection point that keeps inflecting rather than revert to an S-curve. The growth model is not borne out yet to declare what shape it is.
- supern0va 17d agoCertainly. The singularity sort of assumes that there is not a fixed limit to intelligence, or at least that if there is, it's quite a ways away. That may not be true.
