Dr. Ben Goertzel, CEO of SingularityNET and Artificial Superintelligence Alliance, has unveiled THE TEN RECKONINGS OF AGI to prominent AI industry figures and media representatives in Fort Mason, San Francisco. These ten critical, unanswered questions will shape the future of humanity and our relationship with artificial intelligence, from narrow AI through human-level Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) to superintelligence. This initiative builds on our new global study that revealed mounting public concern over AI governance. Initial findings from US-based respondents indicate that 48% believe advanced AI systems are being developed primarily by and for the benefit of a select few Big Tech corporations and governments, with insufficient public oversight and accountability. Alarmingly, the majority (54%) of Americans surveyed expressed a lack of control over how AI will affect their lives. These findings from a leading nation in the AI race suggest that uncertainties over the technology’s transformative potential may be even more pronounced in regions with limited AI literacy and little to no access to the latest tools and models. Dr. Goertzel and the Artificial Superintelligence Alliance challenge this trajectory, advocating for open dialogue and interoperability among all AI actors to ensure that future developments serve humanity and other sentient beings. “The way large governments and corporations are structured, they are after their own interests as organizations, rather than the interests of the human species as a whole,” said Dr. Goertzel. THE TEN RECKONINGS OF AGI address critical questions that will define the future of AI and humanity: Should we create increasingly powerful systems without fully understanding their implications? Who should control these technologies? Will they exacerbate or diminish inequality? How can we prevent AI from amplifying human biases? What happens to human purpose when machines outperform us in nearly every domain? Can AI truly create, or merely imitate? As self-improving systems emerge, will they serve humanity's interests or their own? And ultimately, what remains of human identity when intelligence is no longer uniquely ours? Throughout 2025, we will explore these questions with the world’s leading minds in AI, technology, philosophy, and ethics, with publicly available information for all to engage in the discussion and other future initiatives. We invite you to join our ongoing global survey to share your perspective on the future of AI: https://lnkd.in/eijqBUG8 𝘗𝘩𝘰𝘵𝘰 𝘤𝘳𝘦𝘥𝘪𝘵: 𝘚𝘢𝘺𝘭𝘰𝘳 𝘕𝘦𝘥𝘦𝘭𝘮𝘢𝘯, 𝘚𝘵𝘰𝘳𝘪𝘦𝘴 𝘉𝘺 𝘚𝘢𝘺 𝘓𝘓𝘊.
