Breakthrough of generative AI assistants
Large language models become ubiquitous in work, education and creative professions.
AI agents take over complex tasks
Autonomous AI agents perform multi-step tasks without continuous human guidance.
Breakthrough in AI science: self-learning research systems
AI systems conduct scientific research independently and publish discoveries.
Rise of artificial general intelligence (AGI)
The first AI systems achieve human-like, general cognitive abilities in virtually every domain.
AI systems improve their own architecture
AGI systems begin actively contributing to the design of their successors.
Global regulation and AI safety treaties
Countries sign international treaties to control the development of superintelligent AI.
Emergence of the first superintelligent systems
AI surpasses the combined cognitive capacities of all of humanity in nearly every field.
The singularity: unpredictable transformation of humanity
Superintelligence fundamentally restructures the economy, science, and human existence.
post-singularity society
Humanity and superintelligent AIs coexist in a fundamentally new form of civilization.
Emergence of the first superintelligent systems
Superintelligent systems can solve problems that were previously beyond human reach, from curing diseases to designing revolutionary technologies. The pace of improvement increases exponentially, leading to what some call an 'intelligence explosion'. Artists visualize this moment as a glowing network spanning the earth, symbolizing a new form of consciousness.
