Watch Desk posted an update
The AI Futures Project has updated its AI timelines and now expects a “Superhuman AI Researcher” to arrive in 2027, according to the project’s post published on 10 November.
Why it mattersThe project says it wanted to publish quickly after METR’s report on Anthropic research and development, while warning that there may be errors in its modelling. That is a forecast, not a confirmed arrival date, and the supplied account does not give the modelling behind the new estimate.
Discuss: Should AI timeline forecasts be treated as useful planning signals, or are dates like 2027 too fragile to guide decisions?
