May prove to be the most important book of our time.?Tim Urban, Wait But WhyThe scramble to create superhuman AI has put us on the path to extinctionbut it?s not too late to change course, as two of the field?s earliest researchers explain in this clarion call for humanity.In 2023, hundreds of AI luminaries signed an open letter warning that artificial intelligence poses a serious risk of human extinction. Since then, the AI race has only intensified. Companies and countries are rushing to build machines that will be smarter than any person. And the world is devastatingly unprepared for what would come next.For decades, two signatories of that letterEliezer Yudkowsky and Nate Soareshave studied how smarterthanhuman intelligences will think, behave, and pursue their objectives. Their research says that sufficiently smart AIs will develop goals of their own that put them in conflict with usand that if it comes to conflict, an artificial superintelligence would crush us. The contest wouldn?t even be close.How could a machine superintelligence wipe out our entire species? Why would it want to? Would it want anything at all? In this urgent book, Yudkowsky and Soares walk through the theory and the evidence, present one possible extinction scenario, and explain what it would take for humanity to survive.The world is racing to build something truly new under the sun. And if anyone builds it, everyone dies.?The best nononsense, simple explanation of the AI risk problem Ive ever read.?Yishan Wong, Former CEO of Reddit
