Will it be AI or the climate crisis that ends humanity? We can make it neither. Both of these threats have the same roots: private entities seeking to cash in. We have the power to stand against them.

    AI or the climate crisis? They’re basically related at this point. But the real answer is “both”. The time to stand up to both was a while ago. Really at least 50+yrs ago for climate change.

    It’s remarkable how every existential crisis somehow ends with the same handful of billionaires asking for less regulation and more public money. Apparently humanity’s future is a private business venture, but the losses will be socialized. Again.

    it’s not just private entities, the majority of the global fossil fuel industry is nationalized.
