So how do the rest of you run the numbers on the singularity?

I think we are probably screwed (and that is as close as I can get to an actual quantisation with what I know).

Even so, the more important figures for the purpose of my decision making would be how much difference my own possible actions could make on the margin. (It is probably still worth shutting up to do the impossible.)
