Comment on Ask HN: How do you define the singularity?

Comments

I define it as when machines start doing things that we don't know why. It may already have happened with ML models, unless we can get them to explain themselves so that we can understand.

Extrapolate this to self-driving, defense systems, recommendation systems, content moderation, etc. The basis is that we gave up executive control.
