The Singularity Hypothesis

Hypothesis: The universe is a result of post-singularity technology.



"The technological singularity, or simply the singularity, is a hypothetical moment in time when artificial intelligence will have progressed to the point of a greater-than-human intelligence, radically changing civilization, and perhaps human nature.[1] Since the capabilities of such an intelligence may be difficult for a human to comprehend, the technological singularity is often seen as an occurrence (akin to a gravitational singularity) beyond which the future course of human history is unpredictable or even unfathomable." -- http://ift.tt/vhkkHx



"The transcension hypothesis proposes that a universal process of evolutionary development guides all sufficiently advanced civilizations into what may be called "inner space," a computationally optimal domain of increasingly dense, productive, miniaturized, and efficient scales of space, time, energy, and matter, and eventually, to a black-hole-like destination." -- http://ift.tt/OBBPqD



The Transcension Hypothesis - What comes after the singularity? -- http://ift.tt/Ydmmit



The difference between the transcension hypothesis and the singularity hypothesis presented here is that the former states:



"If transcension is a universal developmental constraint, then without exception all early and low-power electromagnetic leakage signals (radar, radio, television), and later, optical evidence of the exoplanets and their atmospheres should reliably cease as each civilization enters its own technological singularities (emergence of postbiological intelligence and life forms) and recognizes they are on an optimal and accelerating path to a black-hole-like environment." -- http://ift.tt/OBBPqD



In the singularity hypothesis, civilizations also reach technological singularities, with the difference that those civilizations remain in our universe.



According to the singularity hypothesis our Big Bang is a result of a technological singularity that has happened in our parent universe. This means that our universe entirely consists of post-singularity technology. At the start of our Big Bang, dark matter began replicating through the vacuum energy as subatomic technology.



"Dark matter is a type of matter hypothesized in astronomy and cosmology to account for a large part of the mass that appears to be missing from the universe." -- http://ift.tt/T4RwpF



With everything in our universe being intelligent technology, we should see signs of that, and indeed the following recent results show signs of that:



"The universe may grow like a giant brain, according to a new computer simulation.



The results, published Nov.16 in the journal Nature's Scientific Reports, suggest that some undiscovered, fundamental laws may govern the growth of systems large and small, from the electrical firing between brain cells and growth of social networks to the expansion of galaxies.

...

The eerie similarity between networks large and small is unlikely to be a coincidence, Krioukov said.



"For a physicist it's an immediate signal that there is some missing understanding of how nature works," Krioukov said.



It's more likely that some unknown law governs the way networks grow and change, from the smallest brain cells to the growth of mega-galaxies, Krioukov said.



"This result suggests that maybe we should start looking for it," Krioukov told LiveScience." -- http://ift.tt/OBBPqF
