Depends on your objectives. If you believe the singularity is something that will happen regardless then it’s harmless to spin scenarios. I gather that people like Elizier figure that the Singularity will happen unavoidably but that it can be steered towards optimum outcomes by setting down the initial parameters, in which case I suppose it’s good to have an official line about “how things could be/how we want things to be”
If that were true about the Singularity, then wouldn’t it be correct to criticize the people who make predictions about it?
