In this week’s deep dive, we take you into AI 2027, a provocative new publication from the AI Futures Project. The report explores a strikingly plausible scenario in which superintelligent AI emerges by decade’s end, with a transformative impact surpassing even the Industrial Revolution. Based on rigorous research and expert interviews, the authors chart a fictional yet grounded path to Artificial General Intelligence, following companies like “OpenBrain” in the U.S. and “DeepCent” in China as they race toward AGI. While the timeline involves speculation, the urgency is real—the authors argue society is dangerously unprepared for what’s coming. Let’s unpack their vision and what it means for our collective future.
