AI’s Impact on Humanity.
🤖 Q: How soon will AI surpass human intelligence? A: According to Mo Gawdat, AI will reach AGI by 2026, with intelligence measured in thousands compared to humans, making human intelligence irrelevant within 3 years.
🌍 Q: What potential benefits could AI bring to global issues? A: 12% of world military spending redirected to AI could solve world hunger, provide universal healthcare, and end extreme poverty, creating a potential utopia.
WARNING: AI could end humanity, and we’re completely unprepared. Dr. Roman Yampolskiy reveals how AI will take 99% of jobs, why Sam Altman is ignoring safety, and how we’re heading toward global collapse…or even World War III.
Dr. Roman Yampolskiy is a leading voice in AI safety and a Professor of Computer Science and Engineering. He coined the term “AI safety” in 2010 and has published over 100 papers on the dangers of AI. He is also the author of books such as, ‘Considerations on the AI Endgame: Ethics, Risks and Computational Frameworks’
He explains: ⬛How AI could release a deadly virus. ⬛Why these 5 jobs might be the only ones left. ⬛How superintelligence will dominate humans. ⬛Why ‘superintelligence’ could trigger a global collapse by 2027 ⬛How AI could be worse than nuclear weapons. ⬛Why we’re almost certainly living in a simulation.

💼 Q: How is Tesla positioning its robo taxi service in the market? A: Tesla is aiming to change the world towards sustainable transport, winning the first two-month race in deployment, service area, and metrics, rather than engaging in an “online dork battle” about robo taxis.
📊 Q: What’s Tesla’s approach to incidents in its robo taxi service? A: Tesla is carefully managing the launch to minimize the impact of incidents on reaching peak gross margin and revenue, prioritizing this over the cost of safety monitors.
FSD Supervised in Australia.
🦘 Q: How successful is Tesla’s FSD Supervised rollout in Australia? A: It’s considered a success story, with 8 cameras processing live information, navigating complex environments like Brisbane’s “spaghetti bowl” of ramps and exits, and handling roundabouts and highway merges.
CHHAIN, supported by a $500,000 NEH grant, will serve as a central hub for exploring how humanities-based insights, particularly those grounded in ethics, history and patient narratives, can shape the future of responsible AI in health care.
There’s a fresh push to edit the genes of human embryos to prevent diseases and enhance characteristics that parents value. Bioethicists say just because it’s possible doesn’t mean it should be done.
Lifeboat Foundation special cover the following categories: biotech/medical, book excerpts/reviews, cosmology, ethics, existential risks, futurism, internet, nanotechnology, nuclear, robotics/AI, space settlement, sustainability, and transparency/privacy.
Cryonics in space, cryostasis repair science, and revival ethics and planning are converging in 2025 to shape a bold new vision for life extension and post-biological freedom.
Join us Thursday, July 31 at 6 PM EST for a virtual service featuring two of cryonics’ leading voices:
Rudy Hoffman – Immortality Through Innovation. Rudy opens with the visionary idea of cryonics in space and shares how today’s planning tools—annuity structures, revival trusts, and insurance-backed systems—support long-term access to biostasis. He ends with a powerful call to preserve freedom in the era of revival governance.
Alex Crouch – The Bridges to Reanimation. Founder of Revival Research Group, Alex outlines the six bridges of cryostasis repair science, covering nanotech repair, AI orchestration, simulation, and bioprinting. His roadmap aims to make revival a transparent, collaborative goal.
Opening remarks by Neal Vanderee, officiator of the Church of Perpetual Life, connecting science, spirit, and future readiness.
