The
Technological Singularity: What
will the economic impact be?
Many
futurists have postulated that a "Technological Singularity"
may occur at some point in the coming decades. The Singularity
will bring on a period of nearly incomprehensible

themselves. If the Singularity does occur, then what

implications?
