From the simple brains of flatworms to the potential emergence of artificial general intelligence (AGI) and superintelligence. They trace the evolution of intelligence, highlighting key milestones such as the development of general intelligence in hominins and the rapid advancements in AI. We discuss the implications of increasingly sophisticated AI, focusing on its potential impact on the job market and society, and the ethical considerations surrounding AGI's development. Concerns about job displacement due to automation and the possible unknown consequences of a potential intelligence explosion are raised.
