As we approach the singularity things will be more noisy and things will make less and less sense as rapid change can look like chaos from inside the system. I recommend folks just take a deep breath, and just take a look around you. Regardless on your stance if the singularity is real, if AI will revolutionize everything or not, just forget all that noise. just look around you and ask yourself if things are seeming more or less chaotic, are you able to predict better or worse on what is going to happen? how far can your predictions land you now versus lets say 10 or 20 years ago? Conflicting signals is exactly how all of this looks. one account is saying its the end of the world another is saying nothing ever changes and everything is the same as it always was....
