VentureBeat: The Singularity is near — and it has a university

    I like the idea of helping people through advance science technology and not the other way around. Nowadays, we need AI to help in the research seeking cure to rare diseases and other cases that will make the world a better place to live in. Students who tend to gear towards this study should be hailed.

    Check out Singularity Hub to learn more about Singularity University. Singularity Hub is the web's number one blog about singularity related technologies such as nanotechnology, genetics, artificial intelligence, robotics, etc.

    If the "Singularity" creates a future where the development of technology is impossible to predict, why would you go to a university (ie: Singularity University)? Wouldn't that be like going to a linguistics school that only offers courses in Latin?

    Spare us the bullshit comments, Haggie. Do the trolling someplace else if you have to.

    This is an excellent project.

    Vinge's definition puts the spotlight on greater than human intelligence, not accelerating technology.
