Singularity Theory is a concept in mathematics and physics that deals with points where certain quantities become infinite or undefined. In mathematics, a singularity often refers to a point on a curve or surface where the usual rules of calculus break down, such as in the case of a black hole in general relativity, where gravitational forces become infinitely strong. In the context of technology, the term "singularity" is often used to describe a hypothetical future point when artificial intelligence surpasses human intelligence, leading to rapid advancements beyond human control. This idea is popularized by figures like Ray Kurzweil, who suggests that such a transformation could fundamentally change society and human existence.
