Google DeepMind CEO Demis Hassabis believes artificial intelligence will effectively "rewrite everything" as we approach Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). He notes we are standing in the "foothills of the singularity," predicting that AGI could arrive by 2030 and spark a massive transformation of society, science, and daily human life. [1, 2]

Hassabis has outlined several specific areas where this "rewrite" will happen:

• Scientific and Medical Breakthroughs: He predicts that AI will compress the time needed to discover and design new drugs from 10 years to mere weeks, potentially wiping out all human diseases. DeepMind has already successfully mapped millions of protein structures using AlphaFold. [1, 2, 3, 4]
• The "New Human Era": Describing the upcoming changes as 10 times bigger and faster than the Industrial Revolution, he believes AGI will lead to an era of radical abundance, enabling breakthroughs in unlimited renewable energy and space exploration. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
• Energy Management: While concerns exist about the vast energy requirements for AI data centers, Hassabis argues that within the next decade, AI will ultimately save far more energy than it consumes by optimizing global systems. [1]

Despite his optimism for human flourishing, Hassabis has been vocal about the profound risks. He has continuously warned that humanity has very little time to prepare and advocated for a global oversight organization—similar to CERN or the United Nations—to regulate AGI internationally. [1, 2, 3]
