When will the Technological Singularity occur?

 The “technological singularity” is the hypothetical future point when superintelligent AI surpasses all human intelligence through a human-machine merger that irreversibly transforms civilization by transcending biological limits via neural implants, nanobots and cloud intelligence. This is fundamentally guided by a Transhumanism philosophy.

I asked ChatGPT when the singularity will occur?

what is the "technological singularity"? do you think this will occur and if so, approximately which year do you think it will happen?

The technological singularity is a hypothetical point in the future when technological progress—especially in artificial intelligence—becomes self-accelerating and effectively uncontrollable, leading to changes so profound that human life afterward would be fundamentally different and hard to predict.

... (Skip some paragraphs)

When might it happen?

Estimates vary wildly, but here’s a grounded range based on current trends:

  • AGI (human-level general intelligence): plausibly 2030–2045

  • Runaway self-improving superintelligence: uncertain, possibly 2040–2070, if at all

  • A practical “singularity-like” world (where AI reshapes most industries and institutions): likely by the 2030s–2040s

If forced to give a single year for a meaningful singularity-style transition—not a sci-fi instant but a point of no return—I’d put it around 2040 ± 10 years.

==============================

So, the robots will take over by 2040?  Get ready.
