Singularity

"You can't teach critical thinking. You can only provoke it." -Alix Rübsaam VP of Research, Expertise and Knowledge, Singularity What are your thoughts? #InsideSingularity

@sserb And what's your opinion? Are you staunchly optimistic or cynical about the future? How often do you change your stance?

@singularityu The question is designed to split the room, not to provoke thought. Ask a better question.

Hopeful or worried on the future of technology? We ask this at every Executive Program. The room always splits with confidence.

Astronaut food doesn't have to be bland. Thank you @tiffanyjvora for sharing #AstreasChocolates with us at the EP #SUApril2026 #InsideSingularity

Interesting listening @triciawang at @singularityu to discuss the concept of thick data in the context of getting advantage with #AI - small sample, high depth, or, providing the right data, at the right time, with the right size and the right context

Today on Day 4 we asked: who had changed their mind? Almost every hand. Session by session, it shifts. That the oscillation isn't confusion. It might be the most honest response available right now. When did something last genuinely move you? #InsideSingularity #SUApril2026

Where do your best business ideas actually come from? #leadership #innovationmindset

3/ This cohort debates. Pushes back. Brings 12 industries into the same room and discusses the future. That's the point. Watch this space all week. 👀 #SingularityU #ExponentialThinking #SUEP

2/ Some speakers today: → Programming Biology & Hacking Darwin - Life in the Biotech Century (Raymond McCauley) → Ethics & Safety for an Exponential Age (Nell Watson) → The Race Toward Quantum Computing (Mark Jackson) → Life in The 3D Revolution: Exploring Mixed Realities, Digital Twins & a Shift Toward Spatial Computing

Singularity's Spring Executive Program is happening right now in Silicon Valley. One of only two we run all year. Here's what this week looks like #InsideSingularity 🧵

The headwinds are real. The work is harder than ever. And Kai is still showing up, still translating, still finding ways to make people lean in. Featured Futuremaker: Kai Rassmus Landwehr Director Global Marketing + Co-Executive Director at @myclimate #EarthDay2026

He'll be the first to tell you that no exponential technology is going to solve the climate crisis on its own. But what his time at Singularity gave him was a renewed sense of how much potential exists when the right people find each other and start pulling in the same direction.

This #EarthDay, we want to shine a light on one of the many Singularity alumni out there doing meaningful work for our planet.

CRISPR took decades to go from bacterial curiosity to gene therapy revolution. The tools coming next won't take that long — because the discovery process has been transformed. MIT's DefensePredictor found over 600 previously unknown immune proteins in E. coli in five minutes. The same week, a Pasteur Institute AI predicted 2.4 million more across 32,000 bacterial genomes. When AI accelerates the front end of biological discovery, everything downstream — drug development, genetic engineering, synthetic biology — accelerates with it. This is what exponential convergence looks like in practice.

Most people forget: Our ability as humans to play around with molecules, to shape new materials, has been the foundation of how we live today.

In order to decarbonize. what kind of technology can we envision that could effectively use gigawatts of electricity to build the molecules we need?
