Google DeepMind CEO Demis Hassabis says there’s about a XX% chance artificial general intelligence (AGI) will arrive by 2030.
In a recent appearance on the Lex Fridman Podcast, he explained that true AGI must mirror the full range of human cognitive abilities—not just excel in narrow tasks like current systems do.
Hassabis described AGI as a consistent intelligence across all domains, not one that is strong in some areas and flawed in others. He emphasized that for a system to be considered truly general, it must demonstrate creativity and invention, qualities current AI models still lack.
He suggested that a potential AGI system should be stress-tested by top experts over several weeks using tens of thousands of human-level tasks. If no significant flaws emerge, he believes we could confidently say AGI has arrived.
The timeline remains uncertain. Hassabis has offered different estimates, sometimes suggesting AGI may come just after 2030, while others like Sergey Brin predict it could happen sooner.
Anthropic’s co-founder says it’s possible by 2028, and Sam Altman thinks it might arrive during Trump’s next term. Despite the varying predictions, there’s a shared belief that AGI is approaching faster than once expected, but its exact nature and timeline remain unclear.
