AI 2027: Why OpenAI, Anthropic & xAI Are Suddenly Warning Us | Slingshot Nation

Something strange is happening at the top of the AI industry.
OpenAI’s Sam Altman, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei, and xAI’s Elon Musk are suddenly sounding similar warnings about the pace of advanced AI development. At the same time, former OpenAI and Anthropic employee Jacob Coxon is raising alarms about the race toward artificial superintelligence.
In this episode of Slingshot Nation, Tony, Jack, and Derek break down the AI 2027 scenario, self-improving AI, the global race with China, government systems like Sentient, and the growing concern that AI may soon advance faster than anyone can control.
Are these warnings simply preparation for what’s coming—or have the people closest to the technology already seen something that changed the conversation?
