> I like having any prediction as clearly definable, so that we can make bets on it.  One such example would be when will the singularity occur. 

 

>…A logical person would never make such a bet because it's a lose-lose proposition. If I bet the Singularity will happen by date X and it doesn't happen then I have to pay up, but if it does happen then I'll either be dead because of it or I'll be so rich because of it I won't need your measly few dollars.
