Dude, none of these are gonna be considered “major.” If you were to travel to the year 2500 and asked people about COVID-19 or the war in Ukraine, only huge history nerds would have any idea of what you’re talking about
I think that the first AGI, which will probably be this decade, will be considered a major historical event by 2500, just like how we still consider the invention of the printing press a major historical event.
If the Ukraine war ends up escalating into WW3, I think that will count as well, unless we get up to like WWX.
If David Grusch is right, I think disclosure would make that list.
You mean we’re not still talking about the Cocoliztli epidemic and the Eighty Years’ War?
You’re setting the bar a little high by putting us 500 years in the future, though.
I think things just 100 years or so ago can be considered “major”, and COVID-19 and Ukraine might both make the bill.

Extreme doubt about AGI being developed anytime soon. It’s a moral panic stirred up by billionaires to inflate their new tech bubble
