Prediction text

True AGI arrives 2030-2035 (5-10 years from 2026) based on advanced 'world model systems' — current LLM architecture insufficient for generalized autonomy due to lack of temporal consistency and deep reasoning; world models inherently understand/simulate/predict complex physics of material world; within bio-sensing + molecular biology, autonomous systems will rapidly simulate protein folding, chemical interactions, climate dynamics with absolute precision, solving intractable problems before generalized superintelligence. | Next DeepMind world-model benchmark release

Key catalyst: Next DeepMind world-model benchmark release

Watch events: DeepMind world-model releases; Genie 4, Veo 3

Resolution evidence

Status: pending

Hassabis 2030-2035 framing consistent with 2024 Nobel interview; DeepMind Genie 3, Veo, Gemini world-modeling progress.

No downstream cascades — this prediction is a leaf in the dependency graph.

What if this resolves?

Clamp this prediction TRUE or FALSE and run a counterfactual Gibbs sample. Surfaces the predictions whose marginals shift most under that assumption.
