AI Futures Project's Forecasting Insights
The AI Futures Project, led by a former OpenAI researcher, focuses on predicting the future impact of superhuman AI over the next decade, with expectations that it will surpass the effects of the industrial revolution. Their initial publication, AI 2027, presents a detailed quarterly narrative of potential developments in AI, featuring two possible outcomes: a slowdown scenario and a race scenario. This approach emphasizes predictive accuracy, not prescriptive outcomes, and includes cash incentives for alternative, more accurate forecasts. The project aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the technological landscape while encouraging community engagement and alternative viewpoints.
