The Person of Interest TV show is apparently getting pretty explicit about real-world AGI concerns.

With Finch trying to build a machine that can predict violent, aberrant human behavior, he finally realized that the only solution was to build something at least as smart as a human. And that’s the moment we’re in right now in history. Forget the show. We are currently engaged in an arms race — a very real one. But it’s being conducted not by governments, as in our show, but by private corporations to build an AGI — to build artificial intelligence roughly as intelligent as a human that can be industrialized and used toward specific applications.

...I’m pretty confident that we’re going to see the emergence of AGI in the next 10 years. We have friends and sources within Silicon Valley — there is currently a headlong rush and race between a couple of very rich people to try to solve this problem. Maybe it will even happen in a way that no one knows about; that’s the premise we take for our show. But we thought it would be a fun idea that the Manhattan Project of our era — which is preventing nuclear terrorism, that’s the quiet thing that people have been diligently working on for 10 years — that’s the subtext of the whole show.

They're still doing the privacy versus data mining narrative, not talking about what might happen if you could cut humans off the general research and industry loop, but they seem to be very much in with the idea of an AGI being possible very soon, with a potential massive societal impact and probably being inimical to humans by default.
