Why does this feel so strange? It makes it seem like reaching the singularity is not a rare thing. Does this mean that we are likely living in a stack of simulations in the first place?

Because you're a retarded frogposter who doesn't realize that this remark is pure tautology
>the universe has been existing for 13.7 billion years yet your existence conincides with what exists at the same time as you
Fucking subhuman retard

You don't seem to be very curious about the world. The interesting thing with the singularity is that it seems to allow for "spawning" new worlds, in that computational power explodes and simulations, maybe even consciousness becomes possible at another level.

We only had about 1 million humans alive at a time before like 10,000 years.
Now we have 8300 times as many alive at a time (8.3 billion).
Neanderthals were a thing about 40,000 to 400,000 years ago.
so statistically, the chance that our of all human lives you're born in one from the current era, is not that low.
I researched it before and I think it was double digit percentages.

It's actually closer to 13.8.
Indeed, the current number is about 13.79 billion +/- 20 million.

If you don't have an existential crisis every time you open up your vibe project, you are not vibing hard enough.

As for the singularity, I am joining the trend of seeing it more of an era than a moment. Also currently considering the further consequences of Past-Token-Prediction. Sounds like an oxymoron but it isn't.

When I was young, it used to be 13.7 billion year. I am getting old now.

>>109010146
You're 100 million years old? Awesome.
I'm only about 360 years old - I don't actually know for certain, but all telometric data says I was born some time in late 1678.

you trapped are in the amazing digital circus, fren. the object is to survive without going insane (i failed). even children understand this now. my paranoid delusions went mainstream.

No. You street-shitting retard.

there is no technological singularity, and there will not be one
it's a delusion of Silicon Valley types who are irreligious but terrified of death
Christians have the parousia, Muslims have yawm ad-din, tech bros have the singularity

No, it doesn't, you fucking idiot.
