INTERVIEW: NICK BOSTROM

Flo Read | Unherd | 12th November 2023

Philosopher of existential risk argues that AI, if it does not kill us, will

to roll the die with AI. Whereas if we get AI first, maybe that will kill us,
but if not, if we get through that, then I think [AI] will handle the biotech,
the nanotech, risks" (2,600 words)

lenses" (1,500 words)
