"The Singularity Will Be Slop-Announced on LinkedIn": RSI Is Now Just Another Buzzword
teortaxesTex · x · 2026-09-16
A wry take: the Singularity will eventually be slop-announced on LinkedIn by some "[visionary | harness engineering | AI for success]" profile.
The quoted observation is sharper: "recursive self-improvement is increasingly vital for autonomous AI agents" is now just another research topic alongside "long context" and "multimodality" — the Overton window has moved fast. Next up: "superhuman intelligence is crucial for reliable ops"?
A cultural jab at how frontier-AI concepts get diluted into corporate buzzword-speak.
