humanity isn't even a little prepared for AI. we're krill unable to comprehend the whale shaped shadow behind us. caterpillar about to get completely dissolved in a cocoon. the ocean about to evolve cyanobacteria. we're all about to become either dead or unrecognizable.

I read a lot of such doomsday prophesies. As a guy with masters in AI, I'm pretty sure that the more real estimation to the AI conquest is 700 years than 7. You all watch too many scifi movies.

I saw a lot of ppl with AI training get shocked when the recent stuff was released, while people who worked on AI predictions were not at all shocked.

Your timeline is way ahead of pretty much all the experts. Also, you’re assuming that progress will continue to be exponential. It could turn out that technological progress is actually sigmoidal and levels off before anything super paradigm changing manifests.

Well, that will give me just about time to get an online degree on math while working, and after that, who cares?
