AGI by year-end: economic output will decouple from human labor supply
davidpattersonx · x · 2026-08-26
The author makes an aggressive prediction: AI already boosts performance for those who use it, but most don't. By end of this year AGI will be achieved, letting AI do full jobs across driving, physical labor, and office work. Employers will then use AI the way they now use human workers, artificial labor becomes unlimited, and economic output decouples from human labor—unlocking unlimited growth.
