I concur-which may discourage you? On a small futurist pocket I post to, I 
asked someone who seemed to take AI very seriously, what would we be looking at 
if a Singularity was actually approaching. In other words, something like 
precursors. His view was that we will see greatly increased automation in 
factories, farms, mines,etc. first. Then there would be an announcement of some 
similar intelligence test, except not K-12, it would be on the masters, 
doctoral & post doctoral level and the estimated i.q. would be crazy, high. 
Then things would seemingly go quiet for a year, and there'd be changes to 
society coming at us unexpectedly, such as all of a sudden, free food, high 
quality free medicine, and then, free spaceflight and orbital communities.

Subject: An AI can now pass a 12th-Grade Science Test

Just 4 years ago 700 AI programs competed against each other and tried to pass 
a 8th-Grade multiple choice Science Test and win a $80,000 prize, but they all 
flunked, the best one only got 59.3% of the questions correct. But last 
Wednesday the Allen Institute unveiled a AI called  "Aristo" that got 90.7% 
correct and then answered 83% of the 12th grade science test questions 
correctly.
It seems to me that for a long time AI improvement was just creeping along but 
in the last few years things started to pick up speed.
AI goes from F to A on the N.Y. Regents Science Exam
