What was said
"The future is going to be great. Those who make it to 2038 will enjoy it. Those who make it. For sure. I mean, World War II didn't destroy the world, but ask those who went through it."
Gowdat forecasted an imminent period of severe economic disruption, surveillance expansion, job displacement, and potential conflict through approximately 2035-2038, comparing it to living through World War II. He believes superintelligent AI will eventually create abundance and peace, but only after a turbulent transition period that will test humanity.
