This is very arbitrary, obviously, but I feel like there's at least a reasonable chance that 2026 Q1 will be looked back upon as the first quarter of the singularity. [...] There's been a phase transition in 2025.

Source URL returned 403 from WebFetch, but web search confirmed quote via multiple sources including a16z and TBPN tweets, plus the officechai article. Patrick Collison (Stripe CEO) made this statement noting that 2026 Q1 could be the first quarter of the singularity and citing a phase transition in 2025. Vote "for" statement "AGI could quickly lead to superintelligence" aligns - calling current AI progress the start of the singularity supports the rapid AGI-to-superintelligence trajectory. Year 2026 is current.
