In this 29 June 2024 video from Modern Wisdom, host Chris Williamson talks with Nick Bostrom, a philosopher, professor at the University of Oxford and an author.

For generations, the future of humanity was envisioned as a sleek, vibrant utopia filled with remarkable technological advancements where machines and humans would thrive together. As we stand on the supposed brink of that future, it appears quite different from our expectations. So what does humanity’s future actually hold?

Expect to learn what it means to live in a perfectly solved world, whether we are more likely heading toward a utopia or a catastrophe, how humans will find a meaning in a world that no longer needs our contributions, what the future of religion could look like, a breakdown of all the different stages we will move through on route to a final utopia, the current state of AI safety & risk and more.
