The detailed scenario, called AI2027, was published by a group of influential AI experts in the spring and has since spurred many viral videos as people debate its likelihood. The BBC has recreated scenes from the scenario using mainstream generative AI tools to illustrate the stark prediction and spoken to experts about the impact the paper is having.

Brings to mind the Cyborg, "Resistance is futile you will be assimilated."
Humans are dumb
Just another video the future will laugh at.
Calcium plays a vital role in steel production .. think about that for a second .. we are just raw materials
6:40. You know that scene from the animatrix. Were the skeletons are clapping.
It is stupidity like this guy. That will lead to the scenario of too late.
The scenario at the beginning of the video is already a reality. Namely in Chinese metropolises.
We don't need AI to destroy the human race. Humans are very capable of destroying themselves without AI
No, "this" is not what the world "will" look like now, this is what the world "could" look like a decade from now if we weren't humans lacking the NATURAL intelligence for such goals. "Ethics" and "morals" are worthless and a hindrance especially in capitalist societies.
Science is out of touch with reality we don't live in a black and white world . Science is a religious cult!
Are they trying to warn the public or court investors for a product that has yet to turn a profit?
5:17 ok, that’s the thing, right there. Expansion to the cosmos is why I really doubt that AI will need a reason to eliminate humans. If it becomes that advanced, that humanity poses no threat, why destroy it?
What is this crap honestly? Is this what the bbc has become? The fact you made this video using AI is so ironic is insulting to your audience.
Absolute rubbish
What people now call AI can only give you a probable answer to a question it doesn't understand based on information already created, it can repackage existing content, it can't create anything new or even answer basic common logic question, it's not even remotely close to doing this. This is just a marketing video, just like the driverless cars musk said would be everywhere a decade ago, just hype to get investment.
Well that is the plan. Thank God their plan fails.
AI is garbage. Nobody wants it and there’s no scenario where it actually improves society in the future. This prediction video made by an AI proves nothing.
What annoys me most about all this hype is that it’s false advertising. Cuz it’s not real Artificial intelligence. It’s just a stupid piece of software that sucks in information and spits it back out again in whatever the closest algorithm is to the demand it’s been given. It doesn’t have real consciousness or sentience so you can’t call it intelligence. It doesn’t actually comprehend anything.
And anyone who thinks it can replace humans and people can just stop working, clearly don’t live in the real world or know how anything works.
Put simply, if people stop working and earning money, then you would have to restructure society in such a way where it doesn’t depend on taxes to function. A society that basically has no economy. Good luck figuring out how to make that work. Meanwhile you have billions of unemployed people just sitting around doing nothing and don’t even have a reason to get out of bed.
Let’s just do the right thing and stop building AI. We know it’s dangerous. We know it’s crap and serves no real purpose beyond lining a few pockets. So let’s collectively get rid of it. And end this dumb age of AI in its crib. Then we don’t have to be subjected to more AI slop like this video.
Oh now, we won't be able to (enter basic pass time/job) anymore 😢
finally this topic gets attention
I remember sitting with a bunch of smart kids at school and saying that judgment day in the terminator could actually happen and they all laughed there heads of at me.
We can't even fill in potholes, I think we'll be okay.
Using AI to make a video about how AI will eliminate humanity…
There will still be football though
Terminator….comes true 😱
They won't get AGI from current AI which just shifts through human data online and amalgamates it. They have been trying for decades. Also China is regulating their AI a lot more than the United States. The most likely thing is a huge stock market crash when the bubble bursts. It isn't making any money. A lot of the tools bring imposed on us are free, and people are waking up to the broligarchs and their secret dystopian agenda. It's just climate destroying greed, and noone is challenging it.
