Despite the fact that a term, technological singularity is much thrown around these days, I found out surprisingly that many people actually refer it without knowing of what it precisely means.
Technological singularity is a point in time at which technological growth becomes uncontrollable and irreversible, transforming human civilization as a whole in unprecedented and unimaginable way that we can't predict even a bit.
So why is this happening?
First of all, history tells us that the rate at which new inventions are made is accelerating at an exponential rate.
See the paragraph below. You can see what I mean by the acceleration.
This is mainly because new technology usually born from conventional technologies that are combined to apply in a totally different way.
Years ago/The year gap in-between/Invention
1,800,000 800,000 Simple handcrafted tools
1,000,000 700,000 Spoken language

10,000 5,000 Agriculture

途中だけど、
The U.S. has been the most important partner for Japan economically, politically and culturally since the end of WWll.
But it is on the cusp of losing its grip on world supremacy, seeing the rise of China.
As a matter of fact, China is attempting shaking up the current system the U.S. established to ensure its global dominance such as a partnership with its neighbors, international currency system driven by U.S. dollar and presence of overwhelming military power.
There are three reasons to support the idea.
Firstly, the most important foundation work to be a superpower is to establish partnership with neighboring countries.
This association among allies forms a front line of defense.
This then endows the country with a great defense capability against any harmful attempts from the opposing force including invasion, securing the opportunities for its economy and culture to be full-fledged.

In my work place, some people are witched abnormally.
On earth, a person who has been a president since this April is a person
who has done hurtful things to me.
He has an abnormal history of getting married with his seminar student after
seeing each other in his seminar.
And, just before I started to work as his colleague, an old person had been forced to quit the
workplace as he had met his retiring age. But, the old man insisted that he should continue to
be hirered as he had been promised it by the former president.
The next president who had been in that position one year before I started to work had ignored that
promise by the former president of his, and had forced the old person’s to quit the job.
Actually, that president was a seminar teacher in an graduate course, of the abnormally wicked
person with whom I started this story. And, the abnormal person recommended his teacher as a
would be president in the workplace and that person won that position as a new president then.
And that president had attended the wedding of the abnormal person.
And I heard from that president that the reason he had forced the old person to quit was to
avoid a young person to be pressured by the old person.He rejected saying the name of the
young person he mentioned, but it is not a mistake to think that the person is his seminar student
of him, the person who had gotten married with his seminar student.
I continue this story later.

英作文全体をよく読むと最優秀作品の名に値する素晴らしい内容です。
