r/singularity becomes an echo chamber

The r/singularity subreddit has reportedly become an echo chamber after changing its rules to ban "fear-mongering" posts on AI. Previously, the subreddit allowed discussions on how to ensure the singularity benefited humanity. This rule change was applied broadly, leading to a user being permabanned for a post discussing the issue, as evidenced by a link to r/ArtificialInteligence.

Unlike its previous stance allowing broad discussion, r/singularity now bans "fear-mongering" posts, moving its content moderation from open debate to strict control.
