Summary from the TLDR Dev newsletter

The AI singularity won't be an infinite wait, but will occur on Tuesday, July 18, 2034, at 02:52:52.170 UTC. This precise date was derived by fitting hyperbolic models to five AI progress metrics and identifying the one with genuine curvature towards a pole. Only the count of arXiv "emergent" AI papers exhibited this hyperbolic growth, while other capability metrics remained linear.
