Panel: Will we hit an AI Singularity? #FQXi2019 
Michael Vassar: What is the singularity? Earlier meaning: There would be feedback as AI makes ever more sophisticated AI we could reach a point where AI take over. Expected between 2005 and 2030, a switch between human intelligence as the driver of history to AI as the driver.
Vassar: Other definitions of the singularity are in terms of Moore's Law. But seem less relevant now, as Moore's Law seems to be ending.

The original trolley problem:
A brakeless trolley nears.
If you don't act, 5 people will die.
If you change its track by pulling the lever, only 1 will die.

A variation of the trolley problem:
A brakeless trolley nears.
If you don't act, 5 people will die.
If you push a fat man from an overpass, he will die while stopping and saving the 5 on the trolley track.
What will you do?
