Wow... Biology: the ultimate hack... Anyone think that the singularity will be more about biology than computers?

Biology was the first singularity. Something sophisticated enough to reproduce itself, and then improve itself.

There are all sorts of different singularities, in my opinion. Cold fusion would be a singularity. Biological immortality/gene modification in the living is another. Self-improving AI is the singularity that encompasses all of the possible singularities.
