Recommended Watch: The Road to AI Utopia | Mo Gawdat on Raising Superman and the Future of Humanity
(youtube.com)
In this keynote from Abu Dhabi, I explore one of the most important questions of our time, how we, as humans, will evolve alongside artificial intelligence.
AI is no longer something to fear. It’s something to raise. Our true responsibility is not to stop it, but to teach it what it means to be human, to show it compassion, care, and morality.
Drawing from my years at Google [X] and my work since then, I share why intelligence itself has no polarity. It can destroy, or it can heal. The difference depends entirely on us; on the values we choose to model.
In this 15-minute keynote, I discuss:
• What Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) truly means and why it’s already here.
• Why the next 12–15 years will define the fate of humanity.
• The shift from Augmented Intelligence to Machine Supremacy.
• How our morality will determine whether AI becomes our utopia or our downfall.

My hope is that this message inspires you to take part in shaping a future where technology serves humanity, not the other way around.
