Summary | "In a time of existential threats from climate change, computer-based superintelligences, AI-accelerated nuclear and biological warfare and more, we can no longer avoid some profound questions about what's going on. We need to ask: what kind of 'progress' leads to the destruction of humanity's basic habitat, even its basic identity?"-- |
