Microsoft’s AI Leader Predicts AGI Within a Decade Amid Hardware Hurdles

Microsoft AI CEO Mustafa Suleyman forecasts artificial general intelligence (AGI) by 2034, citing current hardware like Nvidia’s GB200s as insufficient. He emphasizes the need for next-gen AI chips to achieve systems that excel across diverse human tasks. Suleyman also champions creating AI companions that genuinely assist users, contrasting with OpenAI’s Sam Altman’s more optimistic timelines. As Microsoft and OpenAI navigate their partnership’s tensions, the AGI race blends ambition with pragmatic tech challenges.
