Technical Report STR 2016-1 ? January 2016 arXiv:1601.05977 [cs.AI] ? DOI 10.13140/RG.2.1.3416.6809 THE SINGULARITY CONTROVERSY Part I: Lessons Learned and Open Questions: Conclusions from the Battle on the Legitimacy of the Debate Amnon H. Eden Sapience Project 2016 SYNOPSIS This report seeks to inform policy makers on the na ture and the merit of the arguments for and against the concerns associated with a potential te chnological singularity. Part I describes the lessons learned from our invest igation of the subject, separating the argu- ments of merit from the fallacies and misconceptions that confuse the debate and undermine its rational resolution.

📊 Game Impacts

Not verified in game

Which variables this event was proposed to move, and in which direction. The magnitudes are held in the corpus but are not shown here, because they have not been verified against the shipped game. They come from pdoom-data. They describe what an event was proposed to do, not what the shipped game does with it. Most events in the corpus are flavour: they are shown for colour and do not move any game variable. Only a small minority reach the systems below, and several of the variables listed here are not read by the game at all yet. Treat this table as a design proposal under review, not as a measurement of play. Corrections and arguments are welcome — the suggestion links at the foot of this page go straight to the data repo.
