The technological singularity is simply the expression of humanities intense desire to become something more, to escape the human condition. As the man in the video said, humans are capable of pondering the infinite, but we reside in constantly decaying bodies. The technological singularity is the expression of humanity wanting to leave behind our bodies and to ascend to another plane of existence. A plane where thought is no longer bound to flesh, where we are no longer subject to the limitations of physical existence.
