It's like exponential growth, whether that's in a petri dish or on earth. It looks like that until it doesn't. Singularities don't happen in the real world. Never have and never will. If someone tells you something about a singularity, that's a pretty perfect indicator that there's still some more understanding to be done.

There’s a case to be made that DNA, eukaryotes, photosynthesis, insects, etc were singularities. Each transformed the entire planet forever.
