IRVINE, CA – March 5, 2025 – EON Reality, the world leader in AI-assisted Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality-based knowledge transfer for industry and education, today announced the release of its transformative white paper, Preparing for the AI Tsunami: How Eon Can Equip Governments for the Global Skills Revolution (2025-2033). This comprehensive report serves as a clarion call to governments worldwide, offering a strategic roadmap to address the impending skills crisis and harness the opportunities of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) and Artificial Superintelligence (ASI) over the next decade.

The Urgency of the AI Revolution

With AGI projected to emerge by early 2028—within 36 months from today—the global economy faces a seismic shift. The white paper highlights a critical skills gap, particularly in the Global South, where approximately 2 billion people require training amid a population of 6.5 billion, according to the United Nations World Population Prospects 2020. In India alone, only 4% of the workforce has formal skills training (National Skill Development Corporation Skill Gap Report 2018), while demographic pressures add 1 million new workers monthly. The International Monetary Fund (Artificial Intelligence and Jobs) warns that up to 40% of global jobs could be displaced, amplifying the urgency for action.

EON Reality’s Pioneering Solutions

EON Reality’s white paper positions its AI-driven platforms as the cornerstone for governments to navigate this “AI tsunami.” Key offerings include:

• EON AI Ready: Creates customized training experiential lessons and skill simulators in under 80 seconds, revolutionizing rapid skill development.
• EON Train AI: Transforms textbooks into immersive VR and AR experiences, boosting retention by up to 275% and accelerating learning four times faster, as supported by the PwC study on experiential learning.
• AI Mentor and Skill Gap Analysis: Provides personalized guidance and recommends certifications from over 60 platforms like Coursera and edX, enhancing workforce adaptability.

These tools are already making an impact. In India, EON Reality’s partnership with the National Skills Development Corporation aims to train 1 million users initially, with plans to scale to 400 million, while a pilot engagement with the Minister of Education targets transforming education for 258 million students via smartphone-based XR learning.

A Vision for the Future

The white paper forecasts a transition to AGI by 2028, redefining humans as “purpose directors” in an “entrepreneur economy,” where small teams leverage AI to solve big problems. By 2033, the potential arrival of ASI could usher in unprecedented productivity, brain-computer interfaces, or even speculative concepts like consciousness uploading—ideas explored in the report as part of EON Reality’s long-term vision.

A Call to Action for Governments

“EON Reality is ready to partner with governments to turn the AI revolution into an opportunity,” said Dan Lejerskar, Founder and Chairman of EON Reality. “Our white paper not only diagnoses the global skills crisis but provides actionable solutions to ensure societies thrive through AGI and beyond. The time to act is now.”

The company is also engaging in scalable initiatives, such as upgrading 15,000 Industrial Training Institutes in India at a fraction of the planned $7.2 billion cost, demonstrating cost-effective, high-impact solutions.
