Computer scientist predicts artificial general intelligence could arrive by 2030, rapidly evolving into superintelligence
- Computer scientist Ben Goertzel predicts AGI could arrive between 2027-2030, with a chance of as early as 2027
- After AGI, AI could quickly evolve into artificial superintelligence (ASI) with all human knowledge
- Goertzel acknowledges predictions are speculative with "known unknowns and unknown unknowns"
- Others like Shane Legg and Geoffrey Hinton have made predictions of 2028 and 2025-2045 respectively
- Goertzel theorizes once AGI can "introspect its own mind", it could recursively self-improve, leading to an "intelligence explosion"
