(Very) Roughly estimating the singularity date

www.daystosingularity.com is a (very) rough estimation of the remaining time before technology achieves a pivotal moment when our civilization undergoes a profound transformation due to the exponential growth of technology and the emergence of superintelligent machines that improve themselves.

Although the Singularity is not predicted to happen on a specific date, all at once, the estimated date can be seen as the center of a bell Gaussian curve of the estimation, with that center designated as the possible date that future historicists will pose as the beginning of a new historical period.

Technological Singularity poses risks that include the emergence of superintelligent AI outpacing human control, loss of control over AI’s actions and behavior, unintended consequences of advanced AI systems, massive job displacement, wealth inequality, existential risks like human extinction, ethical concerns, dependency on technology, and a decline in human skills and abilities due to excessive reliance on AI. Not funny.

We use the definition of technological singularity. This milestone is predicted to occur after AGI (Artificial General Intelligence) is reached. Please check our definitions and methodology here.

Predicting the singularity is challenging and uncertain. Current estimates should be viewed cautiously.The estimated date is being continuously updated.

We ponder a relevant list of curated expert predictions and contributing factors on when the singularity will take place.

Any suggestion for perfecting the method is highly appreciated.
