AI Does Not Know the Future.

AI Does Not Know the Future. AGI Will Not Arise.

In an era of growing enthusiasm for artificial intelligence, it is important to maintain clarity of thought. AI does not predict the future – it only operates on what has already happened. And only if that data has been provided to it.

AI sees data from the past, but it doesn't know which data is true. It receives statuses, response times, texts – it can turn them into numbers and matrices, but it doesn’t understand their meaning or the context in which they were created.

It sees final events. It doesn’t see the inspiration or paths that are not written in the data. What it processes is merely a digital shadow of reality.

Recognizing patterns is undoubtedly a great achievement – but AI still cannot differentiate between cause and effect. It doesn’t understand why something happened, only that it happened.

AGI Will Not Arise.

AGI is a myth sold to investors – mathematical beads wrapped in marketing slogans. Instead of creating "thinking machines," we are building tools that enhance human efficiency. And that's good – because we are not afraid to build.

What is real is not a science fiction fantasy, but a tangible armor – a technological exoskeleton supporting our decisions, work pace, and data analysis. And that’s enough to change the world.
