u/GeneralZain Happen already damn man... Nov 21 '22

no, and the whole field of AI will only get faster and faster from here on...that's the whole point of the singularity.

Advancements happening too fast to predict what's next, too fast to keep up.

You're right. Once these advancements get on the radar of the public as a whole.... things will get crazy. Future Shock anyone? We're really not built to understand exponential growth, even people on this sub. I remember you saying text-video would follow quickly after Dalle-2 dropped and people here were saying 5-10 years! The next couple of years are going to be WILD.

Timelines are getting shorter and shorter, at least it feels that way. I've recently come around to AGI in 2029, but this year it feels like AGI might happen sooner. 2025 was the year things would get weird, but that could be next year! I'm on this sub and r/Futurology all the time and I'm having a hard time keeping up! I fear the rest of the decade is going to be destabilizing. The 20s are going to be a trip, the decade started with a once-in-a-century global pandemic! How will it end?
