The Prometheus Project

In 'The Prometheus Project', Gerald Feinberg discusses the potential impact of technologies like AI and genetic engineering on human society.

He proposes a global democratic process to set long-term goals for humanity, suggesting that the United Nations could facilitate a worldwide discussion on how to use these technologies for the betterment of human consciousness or to avoid consumerism.

The book is a pioneering work in examining the intersection of technology and societal goals.
