| | <p>There is modest evidence that people consistently forecast events later when asked the probability that the event occurs by a certain year, rather than the year in which a certain probability of the event will have accrued.</p> |

See more on <a href="/doku.php?id=ai_timelines:predictions_of_human-level_ai_timelines:ai_timeline_surveys:2016_expert_survey_on_progress_in_ai">the ESPAI page</a>.</p> |

| | <p>The following figure shows an example for some key figures: the distributions with stars are consistently a little flatter than those with circles.</p> |
