Google's AGI Warning!
FutureLens: DeepMind says AI could match human intelligence by 2030, warning of severe risks. Their 145-page paper urges safety measures but admits big challenges remain. Experts aren’t convinced and argue AGI is still a vague idea.
Key Takeaways:
DeepMind predicts AGI by 2030 but warns of extreme dangers.
The report criticizes OpenAI & Anthropic’s safety plans.
Superintelligent AI? DeepMind says not anytime soon.
AI could train itself, but some experts say that’s sci-fi.
Chatbots may spread convincing but false information.
Why It’s Important: If AGI is real, it could change everything—from jobs to global safety. But not everyone agrees on how close we are or how risky it really is.

You’ve heard the hype. It’s time for results.
After two years of siloed experiments, proofs of concept that fail to scale, and disappointing ROI, most enterprises are stuck. AI isn't transforming their organizations — it’s adding complexity, friction, and frustration.

This isn’t just another hype train that overpromises and underdelivers. It’s the AI you’ve been waiting for — and it’s going to change the way enterprises operate. Be among the first to see end-to-end agentic AI in action. Join us for a live product release on April 10 at 2pm ET (11am PT).
