In a groundbreaking new research paper, Google DeepMind has raised serious concerns about the future of artificial intelligence (AI). According to the 145-page report titled “An Approach to Technical AGI Safety and Security,”DeepMind suggests that Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) — AI with human-like thinking capabilities — could become a reality as early as 2030. Alarmingly, they warn that if left unchecked, such technology might “permanently destroy humanity.” What Is AGI and Why Is It So Dangerous? Unlike today’s narrow AI systems, which are designed for specific tasks like language translation or image recognition, AGI would be capable of performing any intellectual task a human can. This level of machine intelligence would surpass current limitations, but it also opens the door to enormous risks. DeepMind’s report identifies four major threat categories: The paper doesn’t just speculate — it stresses that without immediate and global safety efforts, the rise of AGI could cause irreversible damage to human civilization. Calls for Global Action DeepMind’s researchers emphasize the urgent need for worldwide cooperation. They recommend: They argue that the development of AGI is no longer…
