What Will Be the Singularity Endgame: Utopia, Dystopia, Collapse, or Extinction? Why?
The Singularity is a hypothetical future event where technology growth becomes uncontrollable and irreversible, leading to unpredictable transformations in our reality1. It's often associated with the point at which artificial intelligence surpasses human intelligence, potentially causing radical changes in society. I'd like to know your thoughts on what the Singularity's endgame will be: Utopia, Dystopia, Collapse, or Extinction, and why?

Utopia or extinction, depending on the perspective of the person asking. Homo sapiens cannot exist forever, that would require a halting of DNA mutation and biological adaptation. Will "we" still be here even after we've begun to require a different classification term for ourselves, just for scientific clarity?
I think for the purposes of OP's question, we can ignore genetic evolution. That takes place over hundreds, thousands of generations, and history hasn't been around that long.
