For anybody who does futures studies and strategic foresight work, it should seriously bug us that our “futures cone” for “AGI” evolution is primarily modeled in most TED talks, podcasts, and posts as a straight line.

This reflects a single highly desired future by investors, builders, e/accs, and seekers wishing to fill spiritual voids. But with no imagination to support other possible outcomes.

As such, it is driven by willful intent without recognition of emergent novelty along the way. (Hello, Sama.) Just ask anyone hiring radiologists over the past decade.
