A team of researchers, including former OpenAI staff, has published a detailed scenario called "AI 2027" predicting the profound impact of superhuman AI within the next decade, potentially exceeding the Industrial Revolution. The scenario, informed by expert feedback and tabletop exercises, outlines two possible futures: a "slowdown" and a "race" to AGI, with a modal prediction of AGI arrival by 2027. The authors aim for predictive accuracy and encourage public debate and alternative scenario submissions to foster a broader conversation about AI's future trajectory and how to steer towards positive outcomes.
