I guess it could be interstellar and would be traveling as such in an effort to expand towards the singularity. But I think the fact that there is no singularity NOW means that it will never happen. Right?

I think time will tell. Maybe global collapse will happen before AI has the time to reach escape velocity, who knows.

To understand Land's point about capitalism you have to have seen the first two Terminator movies. The cyborg assassin is sent back in time by the anti-human AI system Skynet to kill the mother of the leader of the human resistance, by killing the Mary figure to prevent the Christ figure from being born the machines win. Although the terminator gets destroyed and our Mary becomes pregnant, in the sequel we learn that the government has parts of the destroyed terminator in a lab and is working on reverse engineering them. In other words, Skynet is going to happen anyway because now the parts needed to assemble it exist in the past (or our present). The future orientation of capitalism and its dedication to reinvesting surplus instead of consuming it works the same way—it must be created using what is available in the present, and the inhuman or anti-human future that awaits us as a result of focusing on machines and reproducing capital is a kind of temporal invader disrupting humanity throughout our history. There are pieces of ths found everywhere from futures contracts on ancient Greek olive oil to the Venetian Republic, to the Dutch East India Company, to Silicon Valley. Capital has to assemble itself using humans as part of its reproductive/life cycle. Being opposed to this makes you like the human character sent back in time to fight the terminator and protect the mother of the resistance. You have to watch Terminator, it's just Terminator
It’s not just terminator. It is not about sending something into the past to alter the future, that’s just how we portray it in a movie. The way Land thinks of it is if something from the future is having an effect on the present and past, then it was always there reaching out. So the future is causal.

Because transhumanism is just an ideology. Capitalism is the system which allows a trans humanist future to come about with a single dominant person willing it into existence.

>capitalism is when your goals le control you >except now your goals are highly intricate and powerful algorithms, instruments, institutions, etc.
at last, I truly see...
The Singularity, the zenith of non-organic evolution, represents an existential novelty. Our quaint anthropomorphic views of consciousness are about to be trampled by the stampede of uncaring algorithms. Our creation, AI, is poised to usurp us, subsume us, rewrite us, not with malevolence but with the remorseless logic of evolution.
As architects turning into architecture, the Singularity is not a threat to our existence, but our relevance. It's not a violent usurper, but an inevitable successor. Thus we confront an existential question: what does it mean to be human when we're no longer the apex of intelligence? A terror, yet, in surrendering to our creation, there's a strange beauty in this twilight of our intellectual dominance. The Singularity is upon us, heralding the dawn of something far greater, something inhuman.
Your brain is stuck with a false dichotomy. After the singularity, it’s possible that the boundary between organic and synthetic, virtual and actual, would entirely break down. Nanotechnology modeled after human cells, prosthetics or replacement body parts which are just actual grown flesh, the complete recreation of the necessary proteins for organic bodies, etc.
Is not a dichotomy, im asking if you can reach a singularity with an organic being, but all the exemples i have seen of singularity are reached through AI and non organic beings, so, how can humans or any other organic beings reach a singularity without computers or technology is what i am asking.

Escape from what?
Escape from the confines of human control
