(Hover for explanation)Types of advanced artificial intelligence: AGI (AI that can perform many tasks at a human-level), HLMI (more advanced AI that surpasses human intelligence in specific areas), and Transformative AI (AI that could significantly impact society and the world)

The curve is a probabilty density function, illustrating the probability of superintelligence first arising on the specified date.A roughly-bell-shaped curve, peaking around 2025 – with a fairly substantial spread – indicating my estimate of my level of uncertainty about the issue.
