The AI Takeover Is Closer Than You Think


Listen Later

By 2027, we may cross the most dangerous milestone in human history. And there's no coming back.

AI experts from around the world are sounding the same alarm. At its current rate of progress, artificial intelligence could stop being a tool and start improving itself beyond our control. Not in some distant future. Within the next few years.

This isn't science fiction. AlphaGo already defeated the world's greatest player at a game humans spent 3,000 years mastering. AI is already writing, creating art, composing music, and replacing jobs faster than anyone predicted. And that's just narrow AI. What happens when it becomes general intelligence? What happens when it surpasses us entirely?

Can we turn it off? Will we even want to? And if we merge with it through technology like Neuralink, do we save ourselves or lose what makes us human?

This episode covers the full spectrum of artificial intelligence. The technological singularity, the difference between narrow AI and AGI, the race to superintelligence, and why some of the smartest people alive believe we're running out of time to get this right.

🎧 The conversation about AI is moving faster than AI itself. This episode will get you up to speed.
