TechCentral / Asharq Al-Awsat·medium signal
Speaking at Oxford University on May 21, Anthropic co-founder Jack Clark predicted AI will co-author a Nobel-worthy discovery within 12 months, bipedal robots will assist tradespeople in 2 years, and AI-run companies will generate millions in revenue within 18 months. He also predicted AI systems designing their own successors by end of 2028. Clark balanced his optimism by noting a 'non-zero chance of killing everyone on the planet' remains a plausible scenario.
