Finally, the singularity could usher in a new era of global cooperation. Collective intelligence, integrating humans and machines, could overcome the traditional limitations of human organization.

The data behind artificial intelligence’s rapid improvement Between 2014 and 2022, researchers analyzed more than two billion post-edits of AI-generated translations.

The singularity is a theoretical moment when AI surpasses human intelligence, leading to exponential technological advancements. Futurist Ray Kurzweil predicts this could occur by 2045, with ...

But, according to Kurzweil, the singularity will occur in the 2040s when humans and AI merge to become a super-being. The futurist says this will lead to drastically longer lifespans, an end to ...
