I think that the first AGI, which will probably be this decade, will be considered a major historical event by 2500, just like how we still consider the invention of the printing press a major historical event.

If the Ukraine war ends up escalating into WW3, I think that will count as well, unless we get up to like WWX.

If David Grusch is right, I think disclosure would make that list.

Extreme doubt about AGI being developed anytime soon. It's a moral panic stirred up by billionaires to inflate their new tech bubble
