Story

A 38-page essay arguing humanity is entering a period where AI will "test us as a species." Warns of "a literal country of geniuses" materializing in 2027 and predicts disruption of 50% of entry-level white-collar jobs "over one to five years." Significant because Amodei — who profits from AI — is making the starkest job displacement warning of any major CEO with an explicit timeline.
