In his 1982 book "The Network Revolution: Confessions of a Computer Scientist", Jacques Vallee predicts 2026 as the year of the singularity and proposes the need for a new science of "Apocalypse Management."

Singular Semantics: Vallee and the Origins of Singularity
"The first stage will be to augment our hundred trillion very slow interneuronal connections with high-speed virtual connections via nanorobot communication. This will provide us with the opportunity to greatly boost our pattern-recognition abilities..."
- Ray Kurzweil (The Singularity Is Near, pg 316)
Kurzweil along with Jeffrey Epstein's A.I. protege Ben Goertzel, and Aubrey de Grey, along with a few utopian futurists, are devout transhumanists on a quest for immortality.
Concept of man merging with machine is called "Trans-humanism" or the "Singularity."

Tech-bro Accelerationist's like billionaire Marc Andreessen are pushing for an "Apocalypse Management" - not for nuclear war but sorcerer level technology and they don't care who gets left behind or perishes to reach their goals.
A Quick-and-Dirty Introduction to Accelerationism
Effective accelerationism, or "e/acc", is a 21st-century salvation cult, whose followers believe that unrestricted technological progress will lead to the creation of artificial Superintelligence, which will provide solutions to all human problems including poverty, war, employment, climate change, sickness and even aging and mortality.
Their philosophy is utopian, optimistic and transcendent and ticks the boxes on the criteria for a cult:
- They use magical thinking
- They have charismatic leaders and a chosen inner circle
- they have coded language that excludes non believers
- they have different levels of followers
- they have sacred texts
- they believe in the unstoppable coming of a great mind that will be a saviour of our species
- they believe their digital deity will spread through the universe
- they have enemies who they target and attack (doomers) and who they fear will destroy their coming paradise.
- they believe that Superintelligence is inevitable, and some even believe that it exists already in the future and is emanating back into the present
-they have outlawed all thinking that does not fit their dogma
- The make prophecies and predictions about the date for the arrival of their digital deity, and of immortality, and peace on earth.
- They have a manifestation-based structure and believe all the things they want to happen will manifest if they just believe enough in them.
These key elements have been seen with many cults before - and a surprising number of them have come out of California (Silicon Valley) since the 1960s.
