The Singularity Is You

Computer scientist Ray Kurzweil predicts that one day, very soon, machines will save us.

In a theoretical moment he calls “the singularity,” he predicts that man and machine will merge together. A technological savior.

I reject this notion.

There is no moment when our ex machina gods will save us.

In fact, viewing life this way will engender your own demise.

You are the one. Life is a single player game.

Open your eyes in the morning, gleaming light enlivens dust particles in the air. Your lungs persist. Descartes’ truth is utterly apparent: You are.

This is the only “singularity” worth living for.

Do not mistake this for cynicism or anti-tech animus.

Tech is neither savior nor Armageddon.

Answers live within.

Ignite your own life.

The Singularity Is You.
