IEEE produced a special report on the singularity in its June 2008 issue located here:
http://www.spectrum.ieee.org/singularity
This is a comprehensive report, representing many diverse views about the singularity from a selection of tech luminaries and scholars in singularity related fields. It is a must read if you are at all interested in the singularity. In a few separate posts I will be highlighting some of the cool insights to be found within this report.
