This updated 'fiction to fact' book is about THE SINGULARITY, and the resulting Artificial Intelligence Explosion. It includes both fact and fiction sections. A singularity is a one way event which cannot be reversed. The event explored in this book is Artificial General Intelligence and how its runaway consequences will change our way of life... completely, and very soon now. Many scientists, and other experts, believe it is a far greater menace than global warming, or even a nuclear war, and it may have already begun. AGI (Artificial General Intelligence) computers will follow on from the Smart devices we already have today. New intelligent lifeforms much more clever than we are and able to work unaided 7 days a week for no pay. More incredible developments will appear after them, and then more and more again, leading to ASI (Artificial Super Intelligence). That Singularity and the runaway situation it will cause, will change our way of life forever. Will humanity be ready for such an awesome event? Read this book and the author's conclusions about what is comingand then decide for yourself.
