Not a Singularitarian

I've been telling my friends for years that nanotechnology is the going to cause the end of the world (any programmer who has had to reboot a computer stuck in an ill-programmed infinite loop would be scared to death of nanobot designers. See Grey Goo.)

Wikipedia reinforced my claims by stating that "Many Singularitarians consider nanotechnology to be one of the greatest dangers facing humanity." That's on their page about Technological Singularity. Does that make me a Singularitarian?

I don't think so. I think that if Ray Kurzwiel's Singularity ever comes, it will be marked by rapid discoveries in science & tehnology because of human specialization & advanced tools, not because of the construction of advanced artificial intelligence. I suppose we could create advanced AI once we can completely reverse-engineer the human nervous system (and then synthesize it at high frequencies on electronic hardware), but I tend to think this complicated work would be a result of the singularity, not a cause of it.
