Episode 2 — Many Singularities, Many Masters
from Omega Point Podcast Hosted by Joe Allen
In this episode, we’ll go over the many visions of what a Singularity might be. That includes the psychedelic mystic Terrence McKenna, the quasi-Orthodox inventor Ray Kurzweil, the inverted Gnostic roboticist David Hanson, and the e/acc founder Guillaume Verdon—a.k.a., BasedBeffJezos. For kick, we’ll add a taste of Ted Kaczynski, and to finish it off, the sci-fi writer Vernor Vinge. Oh yeah, and a guest appearance by our boy, Tay-arr Day-shar-dohh. All their Hockey Sticks of Doom soar off in different directions. Yet all of them converge on the rise of a Machine coming into its own.This is a descent into lunacy. I hope you enjoy it.
