“The Maes–Garreau law is the statement that ‘most favorable predictions about future technology will fall within the Maes–Garreau point’, defined as ‘the latest possible date a prediction can come true and still remain in the lifetime of the person making it’.^[1] Specifically, it relates to predictions of a technological singularity or other radical future technologies.^[1]“
