Singularity Possibilities Map
What do you think happens with AI? Walk through ~20 questions about AI capability, alignment, governance, and power — and see the future your beliefs imply, with a narrative timeline of how it unfolds.
An interactive choose-your-own-adventure through possible AI futures, drawn from the public discourse about AI safety, AGI, and the technological singularity. 13 outcome families branch into 28 distinct scenarios, ranging from The Flourishing (genuine shared abundance) to The Ruin (civilizational catastrophe), with everything in between: plateaus, captures, standoffs, escapes, and chaos. The app also generates personalized vignettes based on your profession — how each world event reaches you specifically.
