Why write this book? The Singularity Is Near talked about the future, but 20 years ago, when people didn't know what AI was. It was clear to me what would happen, but it wasn't clear to everybody. Now AI is dominating the conversation. It is time to take a look again both at the progress we've made - large language models (LLMs) are quite delightful to use - and the coming breakthroughs.
So 2029, both for human-level intelligence and for artificial general intelligence (AGI) - which is a little bit different. Human-level intelligence generally means AI that has reached the ability of the most skilled humans in a particular domain and by 2029 that will be achieved in most respects.
