Quantum computing.

So in the last week a QC program has been written and they've QE a silicon wafer (previously only subatomic particles could be QE) and they even managed to do it at room temp. This is huge, it's looking like the Singularity is closer than believed.

And yet you still have some big names saying 150+ years. We're already going faster than Moors Law says we should. Handheld particle accelerators are being developed and we've done more in QC in the last year than we have in the last 10. I'd say even 40 years is conservative. My thinking is 25-40 years is the range and I personally thinking is 35 years unless some really big breakthroughs happen (entirely possible once QC go mainstream). That's also the timeline for biological immortality. Put the 2 together and it's not crazy to say that the current generation may attain something bordering on godhood.
