A comprehensive guide to the challenges of AI and Artificial General Intelligence. Leading companies (OpenAI, Google DeepMind, Anthropic, Meta) are actively working towards AGI, but we remain in a phase of developing increasingly capable AI without achieving true generality. Current models demonstrate impressive capabilities in reasoning, creativity, and problem-solving, but remain limited by their architecture and training. Is humanity ready? For the first time in human history, we are about to create a form of intelligence that could surpass us. Strong AI is an AI that would possess intelligence comparable to that of a human being. It would be able to understand, learn, and adapt to any domain. Some optimists believe AGI could be achieved by 2028. Will we coexist with AIs? Will we merge with them? Will we disappear? How will humanity adapt? The question of how to prepare humanity for strong artificial intelligence (AGI) is complex. There are two scenarios: one utopian and one much darker; this book dares to address both.
