00:00 singularity is near.
01:37 Sam Altman’s Blog Post \

Are we on the path to becoming one with machines? In this video, we dive deep into the concept of The Singularity—the point where humanity and artificial intelligence merge into one seamless entity. From advanced neural interfaces to AI-driven biological enhancements, we’ll explore the technologies paving the way for this future transformation.

Ever wondered what happens when AI becomes smarter than humans? As we approach the three “scary” stages of AI—AGI (Artificial General Intelligence), ASI (Artificial Superintelligence), and the ultimate stage, Singularity—the line between groundbreaking innovation and existential danger grows thinner.

In this video, we’ll explore these stages, the potential for AI to surpass human intelligence, and the profound consequences of machines thinking, evolving, and controlling their own destiny. Are we truly prepared for the rise of AI?

Chapters:

Intro 00:00 — 0:43
AGI (2025–2029) 0:44 — 4:55
ASI (2035) 4:56 — 7:19
SINGULARITY (2045) 7:20 — 10:13

The vast gulfs between stars may take decades or even centuries to travel, requiring enormous generation ships carrying families and whole ecosystems with them. What will life be like on board such arks?

What lies ahead in the aftermath of the Technological Singularity? Could the latest scientific breakthroughs refine our theological understanding? Do we live in a simulated multiverse? Are we alone in the universe? Can we achieve cybernetic immortality? When and by what means might we transcend our human condition? These profound inquiries are at the core of this enlightening volume.

Ecstadelic Media Group releases THEOGENESIS: Transdimensional Propagation & Universal Expansion, The Cybernetic Theory of Mind series by Alex M. Vikoulov as an Audible audiobook in addition to a previously released Kindle eBook (Press Release, Burlingame, CA, USA, December 21, 2024 07.17 AM PST)

String theory proposes that all particles and forces are made of tiny, vibrating strings, which form the fundamental building blocks of the universe. This framework offers a potential solution to the long-standing paradoxes surrounding black holes, such as their singularities—infinitely tiny points where the laws of physics break down—and the Hawking radiation paradox, which questions the fate of information falling into black holes.

Fuzzballs replace the singularity with an ultra-compressed sphere of strings, likened to a neutron star’s structure but composed of subatomic strings instead of particles. While the theory remains incomplete, its implications are significant, offering an alternative explanation for phenomena previously attributed to black holes.

To differentiate between black holes and fuzzballs, researchers are turning to gravitational waves—ripples in spacetime caused by cosmic collisions. When black holes merge, they emit specific gravitational wave signatures that have so far aligned perfectly with Einstein’s general relativity. However, fuzzballs might produce subtle deviations from these patterns, providing a way to confirm their existence.

Today I have the pleasure of speaking with a visionary thinker and innovator who’s making waves in the world of artificial intelligence and the future of human health. Dr. Ben Goertzel is the founder and CEO of SingularityNET, a decentralized AI platform that aims to democratize access to advanced artificial intelligence. He’s also the mind behind OpenCog, an open-source project dedicated to developing artificial general intelligence, and he’s a key figure at Hanson Robotics, where he helped create the well-known AI robot, Sophia.

Beyond AI, Dr. Goertzel is deeply involved in exploring how technology can enhance human longevity, contributing to initiatives like Rejuve, which aims to leverage AI and blockchain to advance life extension research. With a career that spans cognitive science, AI development, and innovative health tech, Dr. Goertzel is shaping the future in ways that will impact all of us. Please join me in welcoming Dr. Ben Goertzel!

In this episode of the Eye on AI podcast, we dive into the world of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) with Ben Goertzel, CEO of SingularityNET and a leading pioneer in AGI development.

Ben shares his vision for building machines that go beyond task-specific capabilities to achieve true, human-like intelligence. He explores how AGI could reshape society, from revolutionizing industries to redefining creativity, learning, and autonomous decision-making.

Throughout the conversation, Ben discusses his unique approach to AGI, which combines decentralized AI systems and blockchain technology to create open, scalable, and ethically aligned AI networks. He explains how his work with SingularityNET aims to democratize AI, making AGI development transparent and accessible while mitigating risks associated with centralized control.

Ben also delves into the philosophical and ethical questions surrounding AGI, offering insights into consciousness, the role of empathy, and the potential for building machines that not only think but also align with humanity’s best values. He shares his thoughts on how decentralized AGI can avoid the narrow, profit-driven goals of traditional AI and instead evolve in ways that benefit society as a whole.

Black holes have long fascinated scientists, known for their ability to trap anything that crosses their event horizon. But what if there were a counterpart to black holes? Enter the white hole—a theoretical singularity where nothing can enter, but energy and matter are expelled with immense force.

First proposed in the 1970s, white holes are essentially black holes in reverse. They rely on the same equations of general relativity but with time flowing in the opposite direction. While a black hole pulls matter in and lets nothing escape, a white hole would repel matter, releasing high-energy radiation and light.

Despite their intriguing properties, white holes face significant scientific challenges. The laws of thermodynamics, particularly entropy, make it improbable for matter to move backward in time, as white holes would require. Additionally, introducing a singularity into the Universe without a preceding collapse defies current understanding of cosmic evolution.

♺ DETAILS

A pair of researchers, one with the Carnegie Institution for Science, the other with California Institute of Technology, has developed a possible solution to the Fermi Paradox. In their paper published in Journal of the Royal Society Interface, Michael Wong and Stuart Bartlett suggest that the reason that no aliens from other planets have visited us is because of superlinear scaling, which, they contend, leads to a singularity. (How do “Predator Civilizations” solve the Fermi Paradox?)
