No it's based on what a singularity actually is. In physics it's the point in a black hole when all concepts of time and space breaks down. The technological singularity is when technology moves so fast it results in unforseeable changes to human society. Yeah we can absolutely say the singularity is happening right now if we are looking at the bigger picture but that's not what the technological singularity is. Then it's just rapid growth of technology.

Also I don't think we need a singularity for infinite lifespan. I think we will reach longevity escape velocity around 2050.
