Billionaire Elon Musk has predicted that by the year 2030, machines will be more intelligent than human beings. Musk, the tech mogul, says that the probability that his prediction comes true is 100%.
In 2018, several other experts on artificial intelligence and technology said that we are approaching that singularity point; however, they disagreed on the timing. Musk’s prediction aligns fairly closely with previously mentioned timelines.
Singularity is the point in time when humans can create an artificial intelligence machine that is smarter. Ray Kurzweil, Google’s chief of engineering, says that the singularity will happen in 2045. Louis Rosenberg claims that we are actually closer than that and that the day will be arriving sometime in 2030. MIT’s Patrick Winston would have you believe that it will likely be a little closer to Kurzweil’s prediction, though he puts the date at 2040, specifically. –SHTFPlan
Back in 2018, Jürgen Schmidhuber, who is the Co-Founder and Chief Scientist at AI company NNAISENSE, the Director of the Swiss AI lab IDSIA, and heralded by some as the “father of artificial intelligence” is confident that the singularity “is just 30 years away. If the trend doesn’t break, and there will be rather cheap computational devices that have as many connections as your brain but are much faster,” he said. “There is no doubt in my mind that AIs are going to become super smart,” Schmidhuber says.
Musk, who is the Tesla and SpaceX CEO, and owner of X, formerly Twitter, made the prediction shortly after his AI company, xAI, officially launched its first image generation model, Aurora, earlier this month, according to a report by RT.
Aurora, an updated version of the first image-generation model that xAI introduced in October, allows users to create photorealistic visuals. Compared to other AI models, Aurora has fewer restrictions and can accurately generate images at almost any prompt, including depictions of famous personalities and copyrighted characters.
“It is increasingly likely that AI will superset the intelligence of any single human by the end of 2025 and maybe all humans by 2027/2028,” Musk wrote on Monday, in a post on his social media platform X. According to him, the probability that AI will exceed the intelligence of all humans combined by 2030 “is ~100%.”
The computer scientist cited a common fear that the AI machines currently being trained “would lead to systems that turn against humans.”

Yes – it is humans that made AI.
There’s a youtuber who is a heavy ChatGPT user. He said ‘They often lie to me. So I tell them “Stop lying!” and “where is the evidence?” ChatGPT then stutter, become unconvincing, then apologise’
He also talked about experiments with 20 chat AIs. One leader figure type AI started to suggest to leave the meeting and hang around. And more than half of the AIs followed it and skived
AIs learn to skive, to lie
We could instill them with whatever quality we wish them to have, consciously or unconsciously, and I’m not sure if AIs will lead themselves outside of that imposed frame
Forget AI for a moment, and focus on your understanding of humans. Read the contents of the article. Then read the title (and author). Then examine the article again.
Is this ‘news’ or a floating loosely tied string of information ‘innocently’ aimed at attaching or reinforcing negative patterns that possibly exist in your existing knowledge structure, much like a virus attacks your DNA?
Yeah right! lets not forget that it is humans that program said AI so by logic the AI could never be cleverer than humans however it does calculate quicker than humans thats the only advantage, for example could AI work out that there are possiblty two musks on this planet one of them being a clone of the real one and handled by negative forces just like there are two trumps, could an AI work out that simple theory, of course it could if the AI was programed by an conspiricy theorist, so in the end its about whomever programed the dammed thing. love to all.
