There's a "wall of fear-mongering and doomerism" in the AI world right now.

"Worrying about AI today is like worrying about overpopulation on Mars."

Concerns that AI could pose a threat to humanity is "preposterously ridiculous."

Claiming AI poses an existential threat is "such an extreme" and risks "wip[ing] out some of its potential benefits."

"I'm more concerned about... the risks that are here and now [than the existential threat of AI]."

Current AI is "not anywhere close" to posing an existential threat but it could in the future.

AI is the "biggest existential threat" to humanity.

AGI's worst-case scenario would be "lights-out for all of us."

Powerful AI systems "taking control" pose an "existential threat."

AI has a "10 to 25 per cent" chance of destroying humanity.

"The most likely result of building a superhumanly smart AI... is that literally everyone on Earth will die."

Does AI Pose an Existential Threat to Humanity?

Shane Legg

Society is more likely to get "cat-level" or "dog-level" AI years before human-level AI.

"[W]e will eventually reach AGI... and quite possibly before the end of this century."

"Superhuman AIs" will be achieved "between a few years and a couple of decades."

"Digital intelligence" could overtake us within "5 to 20 years."

We may achieve "something like AGI or AGI-like in the next decade."

"[W]e could get to real AGI in the next decade."

"Human-level" AI could occur in "two or three years."

"I'd be surprised if we don't have AGI by [2029]."

Will AI Surpass Human Intelligence, and When?

Researchers at the University of Oxford have developed an AI tool that can predict a person's risk of heart failure up to five years before the condition develops, using routine cardiac CT scans.

Researchers at the University of Oxford have developed an AI tool that can predict a person's risk of heart failure up to five years before the condition develops, using routine cardiac CT scans.

The tool detects textural changes in fat surrounding the heart that signal inflammation in the heart muscle — changes invisible to the human eye and undetectable through standard medical imaging tests.

The AI was trained and validated using data from 72,751 adults across nine NHS centers in England between 2007 and 2022, predicting heart failure risk within five years with 86% accuracy.

Patients in the highest risk group were around 20 times more likely to develop heart failure than those in the lowest risk group and had approximately a one-in-four chance of developing the condition within five years.

Around 350,000 patients are referred for cardiac CT scans in the UK each year. Researchers are seeking regulatory approval to add the tool to routine scan analysis in NHS radiology departments.

The British Heart Foundation, which funded the study, said heart failure is "consistently diagnosed too late." Researchers also plan to adapt the tool for use with any chest CT scan, not only cardiac scans.
