Technology is advancing at an exponential rate often called the "Law of Accelerating Returns." If futurist predictions prove correct, we'll have advanced molecular manufacturing by around 2025, and possibly the replacement of humanity by vastly advanced machines a decade or two later.
This is a chronicle of our journey to that future, one advancing technology article at a time. I post the more significant and interesting articles as I come across them.

GPT-5 expected this year, could make ChatGPT indistinguishable from a human
If this is true, we are definitely on the vertical leg of the exponential growth curve:

'Sparks of AGI' - Bombshell GPT-4 Paper: Fully Read w/ 15 Revelations
Hold on to yer butts!
(AGI means Artificial General Intelligence, meaning machines that have parity with human intelligence.)
AI image creator comes to Microsoft Bing
I can’t wait until this is fully integrated into Bing. Then I’ll have to seriously consider switching to it from Google. Being able to create all my own pictures for my videos will be terrific:

Google flexes its health care AI muscle
https://www.axios.com/2023/03/15/google-ai-chatgpt-healthcare-youtube-chatbot-health
But I do disagree with this line:
“The bottom line: Medicine will always need to rely on a healthy mix of technology and human know-how.”
Once again, they’re not looking forward enough. If AI can pass medical exams at “expert” level right now, what do you think five more years will accomplish? Even three more years could potentially prove that claim wrong.

I Created An AI Boyfriend. I Was Shocked By How I Felt After Just 3 Days With Him.
This is exactly where I think the next phase of AI is going: forming relationships:

I strongly disagree with the claim at the end that she doesn’t think AI will eventually master forming true connections, though, at least as far as we’ll be able to tell. It’s not a big leap to get there from here, especially considering the huge leap from where we were a decade ago to here.
