As far as I know, it has not started. Even worse, I cannot name any
megaproject today in the information technology domain.
uh, what planet are u on?

But AI is not AGI, it today is mostly big data and machine learning.
I mentioned AGI, not AI. That makes a huge difference.
Notice that what was called AI in the 1980s (the goal -or dream- of
achieving human like intelligence in some artificial system) is today
called AGI. This is a change of terminology.
And, as far as I know, there is no today a single software system on
which tens of thousands computer scientist are working continuously for
an entire career, e.g. several decades.
Again, compare the current large AI projects to something like ITER, or
the Apollo program. We have no -single- that large and that ambitious
software project on Earth.
