Other findings:
i) Change does not stop after the Singularity, but continues to
*accelerate* forever;
ii) There is a "big win" in the intelligence-increase stakes waiting
for the first uploads or human-level AIs;
iii) An SI would *not* start growing in all directions at just below
lightspeed;
iv) We or something we make can (and/or probably will) achieve
superintelligence within decades;
v) Nick Bostrom's "singleton thesis" is correct.
I hope that clarifies everything.
