OpenAI CEO Sam Altman claims that artificial intelligence has reached "the singularity." A mathematician who spent twenty years working on an unsolved problem agrees, after an AI solved it on its first attempt.
The concept of technological singularity, long confined to forecasting circles, is now entering the discourse of leaders in the artificial intelligence industry. Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, stated that AI had crossed this theoretical threshold, without specifying the exact context of this assertion.
What lends weight to his words is the testimony of a mathematician who had spent two decades on an unsolved problem. When an AI found the solution in a single attempt, the researcher himself used the term "singularity" to describe the event.
The question remains open: is this a real shift in machine capabilities, or a carefully orchestrated communication effect by industry players? Both interpretations coexist, and neither has yet become definitively clear.
