I'd like to have a real conversation about whether AI is a risk for human extinction. Honestly, I don't get how AI poses this risk. What are your thoughts? And, who do you think has a thoughtful perspective on how AI poses this risk that I should talk to?

"They're betting everyone's lives: 8 billion people, future generations, all the kids, everyone you know. It's an unethical experiment on human beings, and it's without consent." — AI researcher Prof. Roman Yampolskiy on the development of superintelligence. We can prevent it.

US Special Envoy for Ukraine Kellogg on the fact that after the Ukrainian Armed Forces' attack on Russian air bases, the risk of escalation of the conflict has increased: "The level of risk is significantly increased. I mean, after what happened this weekend. People need to understand that in the area of national security, when you attack part of the opponent's national survival system, your level of risk is increased because you don't know how they're going to respond. It's absolutely clear that the level of risk is going to increase, and I think that's what we're trying to avoid. We're trying to get to a situation where the risk levels are not increased." So does the US approve of this strike on Russian nuclear bombers or not? They say they didn't know, so what? Can't the US just get out of this war? Well, that means the US will get out of this war through a nuclear conflict with Russia.
