The other day, on the RTR Planeta TV channel, a documentary was shown, which, in a typical for Russian films of this kind, ingratiating manner, promoted the Western idea of the Singularity of Technologies.
Obviously, in the opinion of the bosses of the project, he is ripe enough to inject these ideas into the information space of the Russian Civilization.
So, as an answer, it's time to publish this article, written back at the end of 2013.

From Wikipedia:
Singularity (from Latin singularis "unique, special")
Singularity in philosophy is the singularity of a being, event, phenomenon. A mathematical singularity (singularity) is a point at which a mathematical function tends to infinity or has any other irregularities in its behavior. A gravitational singularity (singularity of space-time) is a region of space-time through which it is impossible to smoothly continue the geodesic line entering it. Cosmological singularity is the state of the Universe at the initial moment of the Big Bang, characterized by an infinite density and temperature of matter. The Technological Singularity is a short period of extremely rapid technological progress assumed by some researchers. A computer singularity is a point in time at which machines begin to improve themselves, without the help of anyone.
Scientology Scientology, as conceived by the Global Predictor, should bring the western elite crowd to a common denominator and provide intellectual superiority over all other people, along the way, solving a number of existing problems of the crowd-elite humanity. At the same time, the main vector of the goal of the Global Predictor - to prevent people from becoming human - remains unchanged, since Scientology effectively prevents people from becoming human. So, having dealt, in their opinion, with the human factor of the environment, the rulers of the biblical project of the enslavement of mankind, as one of the options for curbing the technosphere, are promoting the idea of the Singularity of Technologies in the West (and now in the world).
The essence of the projectIt is believed that the essence of the idea of the Singularity, in short, is the creation of artificial intelligence that surpasses human intelligence in capabilities. Networked computer systems have long been used to solve the most complex world-class problems (within the moral boundaries of the scientific crowd), but there is an opinion that the Singularity presupposes the intellectual "ascent" of such systems to the level of self-awareness. In other words, people should (according to the leaders of this project) create for themselves a techno god (or many techno gods). Scientology would obviously provide such a "god" with medicine men and other servants. Humanity, with its technosphere, according to the leaders of the project, will again become stable in the sense of predictability, since the described hybrid will more or less successfully solve some of the main problems of humanity. At the same time, the most important problem of the Global Predictor - suppression of the tendency towards the formation of a humane structure of the psyche in people, will come closer to resolution. Of course, the Global Predictor, as always, will continue its role on Earth, standing both above the “advanced” crowd and above their techno-gods.
Main defaultThe main silent feature of the Singularity is that the "enlightened" machine mind will not be able to ascend to the level of the human structure of the psyche, since its creators themselves do not possess such - and do not even know that such exists. And if they possessed a human structure of the psyche, there could be no question of any Singularity of Technologies. A human mind that does not have a human psyche, even combined into a single cyber-system with a machine mind that does not have a human psyche, will turn not into a super-mind of a super-human, but into a sub-human super-hybrid. Which, it is logical to assume, is more than satisfied with the Global Predictor. The Singularity, officially and succinctly, is the idea of a future intellectual and technological boom (the creation of a full-fledged artificial intelligence) that will change the world beyond recognition. And, most importantly, about the impossibility of people predicting what it will be like, this world, after that. This last statement, a trap, is of paramount importance for the GP, which has long been accustomed to determining the future of humanity at its whim, according to the concept of preventing the formation of a human psyche in people. The idea that humanity develops on its own, and everything happens by itself, (or a maximum, as a result of exposure to solar activity, or as a result of the distribution of certain "passionaries", etc., etc.) - the most important lie for the GP, thrown to humanity in ancient times.according to the concept of preventing the formation of a human psyche in people.

Who is promoting One of the main and most famous popularizers of the idea of the Singularity of Technologies, at this time, is the science fiction writer and scientist - Vernor Vince. He is quite active in public and writes books that are very popular and regularly receive top Western science fiction awards. Also, the Singularity University was created in the USA. The PR people of the project claim that the singularity of technologies will come in the 21st century, within five to one hundred years.
OutputObviously, the idea of the human structure of the psyche is not included in the range of concepts of the steering of the Singularity project, therefore they cannot predict their future, and everything described in the first half of the article is a subjective expression of the understanding of the essence of the project by one of the representatives of the Russian Civilization. Those who appointed the helmsmen of the project know about the human structure of the psyche. And he doesn't suit them. They are known to want to curb both the biosphere and the technosphere, while maintaining their own role as a local god. As you know, they spud tendencies as a whole, and not individual people, although this does not mean that individual people are not used directly, or bypassing consciousness, to strengthen some tendencies. The idea of the Singularity of Technologies may not occupy the main place among the many tendencies supported by the Global Predictor, but since the question of morality and mental structures,as objectively defining the direction of human development, this idea does not rise, this tendency is potentially useful for the Global Predictor. The Singularity, as a harmonious superstructure for Scientology, perfectly complements the picture of the likely future of earthlings (according to some). But, as you know, about the future of mankind, there is another opinion - much more compelling. In our common future, there is no place for people with inhuman mental structures. Scientologists, Singularists and the rest of the demons among the army of ordinary fagots, determined by the Global Predictor to play the role of local shepherds, are not able (and are not intended to) lead humanity to God-power in conciliarity. They do not raise the question of righteous morality and do not understand. Accordingly, there is no support for them either among righteous people, and even more so, support from Above,from the Creator and Almighty, the One Who Is.
