Question 2.
Arrange the following into a meaningful sequence:
1. I’m not sure when I first became aware of the Singularity.
2. In the almost half century that I've immersed myself in computer and related
technologies, I've sought to understand the meaning and purpose of the continual upheaval that I have witnessed at many levels.
3. Gradually, I've become aware of a transforming event looming in the first half of the twenty first century.
4. I'd have to say it was a progressive awakening.
5. Just as a black hole in space dramatically alters the patterns of matter and energy accelerating toward its event horizon, this impending Singularity in our future is increasingly transforming every institution and aspect of human life, from sexuality
to spirituality.
