The singularity framing is really tough here, right? It comes from black hole physics. Essentially, at the event horizon, the way we know how to do physics stops working, and we rightly conclude that we can't currently say anything about the other side of the event horizon. It is not saying that nothing is occurring there. Matter, time, space, energy, whatever, that still is there (maaaaybe?) and is still undergoing something. It's just that we don't know what that is.

The same is true with using these tech singularity arguments. Like, in the age of superintelligence (if that happens), there will still be thing happening, the dawn will still come every day and the dusk will still too. It's just that we say our current ideas about that new day aren't that applicable to that new age (God, this sounds like a hippie).

However, unlike with black hole physics where we aren't even sure time can exist like we know, we are likely all going to be there in that new superintelligence age. We're still going to be making coffee and remembering bad cartoons from our youth. Like, the analogy to black hole physics breaks down here and maybe does a disservice to us. It's not a stark boundary at the Schwartzchild radius, it is a continuous thing, a messy thing, a volatile thing, and very importantly for the HN userbase, a thing that we control and have the choice to participate in.

We are not passively falling into the AGI world like the gnawing grinding gravity of a black hole.
