Google DeepMind CEO: AGI is coming within years, not decades

Google DeepMind CEO Demis Hassabis predicts Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) will emerge by 2030, calling it a "new human era." He believes 2026 was a turning point, with AI agents becoming useful. Others, like Elon Musk and Sam Altman, share similar timelines, while some argue current models already qualify as AGI. Skeptics point to benchmark failures, and a lack of a clear AGI definition complicates the debate.

Altman trial reveal Elon Musk privately warned his Neuralink associates that Google DeepMind was "moving very fast" and that OpenAI was "not on a path to catch up." Testimony from OpenAI president Greg Brockman further shows Musk was fixated on DeepMind CEO Demis Hassabis from OpenAI's earliest days — even questioning whether founding it as a non-profit had been a strategic mistake.
