Singularity One was a pioneering research organization established in 2027 through an unprecedented international partnership between leading American and Chinese technology corporations. Headquartered in China, the institution represented one of the most significant collaborative scientific ventures of the early 21st century.
The organization was structured as a direct Research and Development entity with a carefully balanced governance model. Each partner corporation maintained equal shareholding and board representation, creating a unique power-sharing arrangement that transcended traditional national and corporate boundaries. This structure was specifically designed to foster cooperation while preserving intellectual equity among the participating entities.
The explicit mandate of Singularity One was the advancement of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) research with the specific goal of catalyzing a technological singularity. The organization focused its resources on identifying and developing the fundamental technologies and methodologies required for the emergence of self-improving artificial intelligence systems capable of recursive enhancement.
Singularity One emerged during a pivotal period in the development of artificial intelligence, when early neural network models were demonstrating increasingly sophisticated capabilities but had not yet achieved general intelligence. The organization's formation represented a recognition among leading technology companies that the path to AGI would require resources and expertise beyond what any single corporation could independently marshal.
The establishment of Singularity One also marked a significant shift in international scientific collaboration, as it represented one of the first major joint ventures between American and Chinese technology interests during a period otherwise characterized by increasing geopolitical tension and technological competition.
The work conducted at Singularity One laid critical groundwork for subsequent developments in artificial intelligence, ultimately contributing to the technological foundations that would later enable the creation of the Vox Mentis neural network. Though Singularity One itself would eventually be superseded by other research entities, its collaborative model established an important precedent for international cooperation in advanced technology development.

Vox Mentis
a collection of fourteen autonomous AIs, interlinked by a neural network, with each AI studying a specific aspect of knowledge such as Mathematics, Social Sciences, Heath and Medicine, etc. The Vox Mentis grows and learns on its own by collecting data throughout the known universe. The Vox Mentis and humans exist independently for the most part; with humanity frequently using the Vox Mentis as an adviser and guide. (learn more)
