Comment by Demis Hassabis
Nobel laureate, AI Researcher and CEO of DeepMind
Assuming we steward it safely and responsibly into the world, and obviously we’re trying to play our part in that, then we should be in a world of what I sometimes call radical abundance. [...] It should lead to incredible productivity and therefore prosperity for society.
Of course, we’ve got to make sure it gets distributed fairly, but that’s more of a political question. And if it is, we should be in an amazing world of abundance for maybe the first time in human history, where things don’t have to be zero sum. And if that works, we should be travelling to the stars, really.

Verified via web search. The quote is from Demis Hassabis's August 2025 interview with The Guardian ("Demis Hassabis on our AI future: 'It'll be 10 times bigger than the Industrial Revolution — and maybe 10 times faster'"). Search results confirm verbatim the key phrases: "world of what I sometimes call radical abundance" and "incredible productivity and therefore prosperity for society." The vote "for" on "AGI will create abundance" directly aligns with Hassabis's central thesis in the interview.
