• AI gets exponential: Artificial General Intelligence. Humanoids and cyborgs. Synthetic biology. Quantum computing. Mind emulation. How will they unfold?
• AI authoritarianism: AI will render truth obsolete, freedom redefined, and job scarcity ubiquitous. Can we still shape AI for the benefit of all?
• Geopolitics supercharged: Super Intelligence will be worshiped. China and America will clash over their views on AI. Politics will be centered on species identities.
• Humanity’s greatest epic: From Mythology to Kubrick. From Aristotle to Sam Altman. From Leonardo to Boston Dynamics. From today to Superintelligence.
