The Singularity May Be Near
نویسنده
چکیده
Toby Walsh in “The Singularity May Never Be Near” gives six arguments to support his point of view that technological singularity may happen but that it is unlikely. In this paper, we provide analysis of each one of his arguments and arrive at similar conclusions, but with more weight given to the “likely to happen” probability.

Comparison of original and weighted singularity indexin separation of Pb- Zn mineralized zone in the Haft Savaran district, Central Iran
The Haft Saravan area is located in 90 km SE Arak in the central Iran. This area is a part of Malyer-Isfahan metallogenic belt. The article's objective is determining the most suitable method for identifying mineralized zones using original singularity and weighted singularity methods in three-dimensional space. In weighted singularity method, mineralized zones have a greater volume relative to...
متن کاملApproximation of Singularity Sets with Analytic Graphs over the Ball in C
Let h be a smooth function on the ball in C2 whose gradient has length less than or equal to 1. We show that if h is uniformly near an analytic function on every complex affine one-dimensional slice then it must be near some function analytic on the whole ball. We use this to show the following: a singularity set over the ball which is near the graph of a function h with |∇h| ≤ 1 must be near t...
متن کاملOrbital Normal Forms for a family of-zero Singularity
Consider a Dynamical system x'=F(x,µ) such that its linear part has a pair of imaginary eigenvalues and one zero eigenvalue (Hopf zero singularity). Recently, the simplest normal form for this singular system has been obtained by sl(2) Lie algebra theory and the decomposition of space into three invariant subspaces. The normal form of this singular system is divided into three general cases. In...
متن کاملOn exact solutions and singularities in string theory
Abstract We construct two new classes of exact solutions to string theory which are not of the standard plane wave or gauged WZW type. Many of these solutions have curvature singularities. The first class includes the fundamental string solution, for which the string coupling vanishes near the singularity. This suggests that the singularity may not be removed by quantum corrections. The second ...
متن کاملShape of gauge field tadpoles in heterotic string theory
Orbifolds in field theory are potentially singular objects for at their fixed points the curvature becomes infinite, therefore one may wonder whether field theory calculations near orbifold singularities can be trusted. String theory is perfectly well defined on orbifolds and can therefore be taken as a UV completion of field theory on orbifolds. We investigate the properties of field and strin...
