It seemed like nothing but applause lights to me, though they're damned good applause lights. I won't spoil it, but there's a bit late in the video that really caused a delightful change of perspective for me.
It's anti-singularity if anything, and makes only a vague gesture towards rationality.
The conclusion of the video is that reaching the stars is easy compared to overcoming bias. It states, "...we can succeed, the biggest problem is us...the ape that we each carry inside...". What is "anti-singularity" about it?
There's no hint at the concept that things might get different for us very quickly.
And there's no reason to think that getting to the stars is easier than overcoming bias.
