Quotes:
Are we close to an intelligence explosion?

AIs are inching ever-closer to a critical threshold. Beyond this
threshold are great risks—but crossing it is not inevitable.

Timelines to superintelligent AI vary widely, from just two or three
years (a common prediction by lab insiders) to a couple of decades
(the median guess among the broader machine learning community). That
those closest to the technology expect superintelligence in just a few
years should concern us. We should be acting on the assumption that
very powerful AI could emerge soon.
