Life (Before the Singularity) in Weeks

Hacker News

Tim Urban's post Your Life in Weeks ( https://waitbutwhy.com/2014/05/life-weeks.html ) visualizes the 4680 weeks that compose your life, and Bryan Braun made an interactive version that shows you how many of those weeks you've already used up ( https://www.bryanbraun.com/your-life/weeks.html ). I really liked Bryan's site! But I had an issue with it: it assumes my life will be about 90 years long. But as the technological singularity nears, I instead expect my life to be much shorter (if AI kills us all) or much longer (if it doesn't, and we get dramatically better longevity technology). So in case you weren't feeling enough existential dread, I made my own version that pulls the latest forecast from Metaculus for when artificial general intelligence will be invented and charts how much of your life up until then has passed. The code can be found at https://github.com/RomanHauksson/life-before-agi-in-weeks . Built hastily with Cursor and Next.js.
