With the unchecked race to build smarter-than-human AI intensifying, humanity is on track to almost certainly lose control. In "Keep The Future Human", FLI Executive Director Anthony Aguirre explains why we must close the 'gates' to AGI - and instead develop beneficial, safe Tool AI built to serve us, not replace us. We're at a crossroads: continue down this dangerous path, or choose a future where AI enhances human potential, rather than threatening it. 🔗 Read Anthony's full "Keep The Future Human" essay - or explore the interactive summary - at the link in the replies:
