AI Adopter Archetype
You believe AGI ends most arguments. Including this one.
You believe AGI will solve most of humanity's problems within your lifetime — climate, disease, scarcity, possibly death. You have opinions about Ray Kurzweil that you have rehearsed. You bring up the simulation hypothesis at parties and are surprised when people change the subject. The thing other people call 'hype' you genuinely call 'pacing yourself for what's coming.' You're not wrong to be excited — the people who took the printing press seriously in 1450 turned out to be right too. You're just early. Comfortably, gloriously early.
Famous The Singularity Chasers
Every person who has rehearsed opinions about Ray Kurzweil, the attendees of every AI conference who truly believe they are living through the most important decade in human history, and your friend who keeps telling you to 'at least read the wait but why post.'

Questions people ask about The Singularity Chasers
Is believing in AGI a reasonable position?
It's a plausible one. The Singularity Chaser's sin is usually timing, not direction — the future they're imagining may arrive, just slower than they expect.
What's the biggest risk for Singularity Chasers?
The 'true believer' trap: dismissing legitimate concerns because they don't fit the optimistic frame. The best Chasers are still rigorous.
