2045 — Singularity

“Singularity” here means the future becomes hard to predict because the rate of capability improvement is too high.

Happy-path framing

The goal isn’t to control everything. It’s to ensure: - humans retain agency and dignity - systems remain auditable and corrigible - power doesn’t collapse into a single irreversible attractor

Boundary markers

• One-way doors everywhere (irreversible deployments)
• Value lock-in by narrow coalitions

Strategic posture

• Build reversible systems
• Prefer modularity + replaceability
• Invest in tools that widen participation in building the physical world
