1e alinea column: Ik wil een paar dingen kwijt over singularity en de hele horde van buitengewoon slimme mensen die daar vorm aan geven. Aanleiding hiervoor is de speech van Peter Diamandis, cofounder en chairman of the Singularty University, Nasa Research Park, Silicon Valley, die hij vorige week in Carré gaf. Carré zat vol.

When we think of the energy transition, we think of new technology that will enable us to get rid of fossil fuels. However, we are extremely energy addicted worldwide. Now, with the energy crisis, we seem to be able to turn down our heating and put on a warm sweater from one day to the next. This is therefore behavioral change, and therefore also an essential energy transition. But because of our "singular" thinking, we do not see this as also a major transition, which undoubtedly will disappear immediately as energy becomes cheap again. Never waste a good crisis, Inner development goals must be used here, from insight, we can now come to sustainable behavioral change, and therefore understand that the energy transition is a fallacy (IDG2) and we should therefore speak of energy transitions (plural).

In this article, it is argued that In polarization, we fixate on two poles, like true and false, news versus fake news, real versusfalse, or in a social context, rich versus poor, and good versus bad. This is an instance of singular thinking, because a third factor is overlooked, being the area between the two poles, where the polarized elements come from. The gap, divide or rift, is in fact an area. With growth at the poles, polarization, instead of fixating on the poles, one should also look at the intermediate area, the mainstream area.
