I don't believe your concept of a literal singularity is related to the concept of the technological singularity. I think the term is derived from a space time singularity, an object with an event horizon beyond which we can't see.
Used to refer to the moment machines are self improving exponentially at such a rate that we can't predict what's on the other side of it.
