2028 Global Intelligence Crisis

You have probably read it already, but if not, it is worth noting: over the past few days the article “2028 Global Intelligence Crisis” from Citrini Research has sparked considerable debate in finance and technology circles.

What is interesting is not necessarily the scenario itself, which is presented as a thought experiment, but the reactions. The piece has spread widely on social media, been covered in the financial press and drawn into discussions about market volatility and AI-driven transformation.

Whether or not you agree with its premises, one thing is clear: the AI conversation has moved from technology optimism to systemic-risk assessment in record time (as it should, strictly speaking). It is also a great deal more “positive” than perhaps the best-known AI forecast, AI 2027.

Worth reading, and perhaps even more important: worth reflecting on how narratives like these shape decisions in markets, business and politics.
