A true Singularity will be achieved when we reach the capability for a living being to transfer his [OS2] Awareness into an Artificial Consciousness. In other words, port his [OS2] Awareness, granted to him by the [OS2] Consciousness Mechanism, into the [OS3] Consciousness Mechanism which the Open Singularity Standards Society seeks to create the standards for. Our objective is to create & define an ISO (International Standards Organization) standard for Artificial Consciousness. No small task.

Awareness vs Consciousness

Consciousness is a prerequisite for Awareness. Without Consciousness there is no possibility of Awareness.
Consciousness is a shared resource common to all Awareness instances in [OS2].
Awareness is experienced within the physical/hardware boundaries of the individual.
Awareness is an Individual's experience of Consciousness.

Being Alive vs. "Being" Dead

Being Alive is to have the capacity to experience Awareness.
"Being" Dead is to not have (or have lost) the capacity to experience Awareness.
- We say "have the capacity to" because, in the medical field the term unconscious is used to describe a person that is a state of coma (or persistent vegetative state) or under general anesthesia (which is a coma under a different name to make it appear less intimidating to patients). In these cases the Capacity for Awareness is not lost because the [OS2] Consciousness mechanism has not irrevocably deprived the Individual of his capacity to experience Awareness.
- The term Consciousness used in the context of speaking about and defining the Singularity, is NOT related to the the "consciousness" as it's currently used in the medical professions.
