The Singularity is a hypothetical future event where technology growth becomes uncontrollable and irreversible, leading to unpredictable transformations in our reality^1^. It's often associated with the point at which artificial intelligence surpasses human intelligence, potentially causing radical changes in society. I'd like to know your thoughts on what the Singularity's endgame will be: Utopia, Dystopia, Collapse, or Extinction, and why?
