The Doomsday Forecast: An OpenAI Insider’s Warning on Superintelligence

Former OpenAI researcher Daniel Kokotajlo warns that the race to superintelligence carries a high risk of human extinction or loss of societal control to autonomous systems. He argues that power‑seeking incentives and reckless competition among tech leaders are sidelining safety, and calls for international regulation and transparency to keep AI aligned with humanity. Kokotajlo predicts sweeping economic disruption, mass unemployment as labor is replaced by AI agents, and urges immediate global action to steer this “climax of human history” away from catastrophe.
