Many experts predict it will get here within 20 years, while others suggest it may take a little longer.

Still, we will quickly determine it shares two key traits with us humans: consciousness and self-awareness. And while we may resist admitting this, we will eventually conclude that it is far more intelligent than even the smartest among us.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No, this alien will not come from a distant planet in a fanciful ship. Instead it will be born right here on earth, hatched in a well-funded research lab at a prestigious university or multinational corporation.&nbsp;I am referring to the first general artificial intelligence (AGI) to demonstrate thinking capabilities that exceed our own.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I know \u2014 there are some scientists who believe AGI will not happen for generations, while others suggest it may never be attainable. That said, researchers have\u00a0<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/research.aimultiple.com\/artificial-general-intelligence-singularity-timing\/\" target=\"_blank\">surveyed large numbers of <strong>AI<\/strong> experts<\/a>\u00a0many times over the past decade and nearly half consistently predict AGI will happen before 2060.
