If the universe hasn't already woken up yet, one could assume that means we are the first form of intelligent life to make it this far. Which is equally exciting and terrifying.

For the first time in human history, we have a fighting chance.

It's all speculation, man. I want to know what you think personally.

Nah I'd bet the sub would be fucked. The majority of people here expect AGI before 2029. Kind of insane to me. So we'll see what happens.

If the singularity doesn't occur by 2045, or if AGI isn't achieved by 2029 Ray will lose all credibility. I wonder what will happen to this subreddit if that happens.

I'd rather be pleasantly surprised instead of expecting something to happen.
TheHamsterSandwich t1_itos3pb wrote
Given Ray's credibility, I don't doubt that AGI will be achieved by 2029.
But that doesn't mean the change will be instant.
All these people saying "Wouldn't AGI just turn into a super intelligence really quickly" do not see reality. It will take decades for that transition into a jobless utopia.
I'd like to be proven wrong but I don't think I will be.

There's no way nearly all jobs will be automated in 10 years. Even with exponential advances in technology, I can't see that happening.

No job automation until at least half a century from now.

Live life as normal. The optimism that runs this subreddit is often disappointing in reality. 5-10 years from now, things won't be that different if different at all.

"any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic"
Maybe stop trying to debunk things that haven't happened yet? Would be kind of cool if you could drop your pessimism for 2 seconds.
