The Beyond Tomorrow Podcast with Julian IssaShow Notes
Could AGI arrive within the next three to four years and super-intelligence follow almost immediately?
Emad Mostaque, founder of Intelligent Internet, explains why he believes the first stage of the singularity has already begun, why recursive self-improvement could accelerate AI from AGI to ASI in as little as a day, and why the convergence of AI and quantum computing could transform the world faster than most people expect.
In this clip, Emad reveals why leading AI experts believe AGI is rapidly approaching, how today’s models are already outperforming top programmers, and why many jobs could become economically irrelevant within the next 1,000 days.
