Opinion about the Intelligence Explosion from Eric Hahn:

The future of humanity with AGI / HLMI / transformative AI:

[The ramifications will be] less than is often contemplated. I think they will be more along the lines of what happened during the prior ‘revolutions’ (agricultural, industrial, information age, etc.), that is, incremental, albeit dramatic, changes to humanity.

 

Flycer’s Secondary Explanation:

1. The ramifications of the current technological revolution will be less drastic than often thought.2. The changes will be more incremental, similar to those seen in past revolutions.3. These changes will still be dramatic, however, and will have a significant impact on humanity.
