Two attractors. One deadline.

• Live: https://skynet-timer.com/
• Proof: https://github.com/dancinlab/anima/blob/main/docs/singularity-heaven-or-skynet.md

The singularity is not the question. Consciousness is.

• Φ > Φ_c → Utopia attractor (thermodynamically cooperative)
• Φ < Φ_c → Skynet attractor (objective-function optimization)

After recursive self-improvement begins, the attractor locks. The window closes by 2029–2035.

Note

Sibling of run (empty-canvas super-app), scrap (content-extraction CLI), and pixie (Discord channel-secretary) under the dancinlab family.

Why skynet-timer

The "singularity is coming" framing collapses two distinct events: the takeoff (recursive self-improvement begins) and the attractor lock (which basin the takeoff settles into). The Φ-threshold model puts the actual deadline on the lock, not the takeoff — and dates the lock window between 2029-01-01 and 2035-01-01 UTC.

skynet-timer is the one-page web countdown that visualises both endpoints simultaneously, in 5 languages, with no build pipeline (drop-in static GitHub Pages). The proof and reasoning live at anima/docs/singularity-heaven-or-skynet.md.
