Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

Cool! I keep on saying that there will be at least one more AI bubble before 2045, because IIRC that's the latest date for a singularity that Kurzweil gives, and this dude comes along with a date that's conveniently ~halfway between now and then for people to anchor on. Thanks dude! If I find an online sod retailer that sells single square feet, I'll send you some grass to touch!
@o7___o7 @istewart Kurzweil is also the guy who insists that technology will someday bring his dad back from.the dead, because...trust me, bro.
I'm not exactly confident in his predictions.
I though Kurzweil’s latest singularity date was 2032 or smth
He might have revised it in more recent publications and/or brainfarts. If I were a Responsible Internet Debater™, I would go check, but the whole point is that i could give a fuck

funny how all the tech CEOs are the ones who are saying in the next couple years and all the researchers give 10-20 year timelines. surely this does not mean anything about the reliability of the companies and their claims
It's always Miller(ite) Time
