    2 corrections applied: The 2007 'Universal Intelligence' paper was co-authored by Shane Legg and Marcus Hutter, not Demis Hassabis (consistent with the article's own reference list). | Goldman Sachs estimated generative AI could raise the LEVEL of global GDP by ~7%, not boost the annual growth rate by 7 percentage points.

    Before

    (1) "Researcher Shane Legg and entrepreneur Demis Hassabis, in their foundational 2007 paper 'Universal Intelligence'..." (2) "could increase annual global GDP growth by 7 percentage points over a 10-year period"

    After

    (1) "Researcher Shane Legg and Marcus Hutter, in their foundational 2007 paper 'Universal Intelligence: A Definition of Machine Intelligence,' proposed that general intelligence should be measured by..." (2) "A 2023 analysis by Goldman Sachs estimated that AGI-level automation could raise the level of global GDP by about 7 percent over a 10-year period"

    Why: Verified: body text and bibliography correctly attribute the 2007 'Universal Intelligence' paper to Legg and Hutter (Minds and Machines, 17(4), 391-444), and correctly describe the Goldman Sachs estimate as raising the LEVEL of global GDP by about 7 percent, not the annual growth rate. No stale Demis Hassabis co-authorship or growth-rate-percentage-points claims remain anywhere on the page, and the FAQ schema does not reference either citation. No further changes needed.
