Shane Legg says that there is a 95% probability of human-level AI by 2045. Kurzweil doesn’t give probabilities, but claims high confidence in Turing Test passing AI by 2029 and a slow takeoff Singularity over the next two decades. I would bet that a representative sample of experts would assign less than 50% probability to human-level AI by 2045, but more than 5%.

I was surprised, his recent post didn’t leave me with this impression, and I didn’t remember the past well enough. But apparently this is correct, here’s the post and visualization of the prediction endorsed by Legg.
