A bearded man with a thick accent sits in a podcast studio. An earnest, British interviewer sits across from him. He asks a simple question: what will happen to AI in 2027?

The expert's response? Based on "prediction markets" and comments by "tops of labs," artificial general intelligence and robotics will combine to create 99% unemployment. Humans will be rendered useless and robots will take over our menial tasks like raking leaves, brain surgery, and childcare. The result? To quote the great Dr. Peter Venkman, "Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together... mass hysteria!"
