Navigating AI Safety and Societal Impact

Max Winga, an AI safety advocate from Control AI, joins The Peter McCormack Show for a sobering look at the existential risk posed by artificial intelligence.

In this episode, Max reveals how the reckless race for superintelligence, a profound lack of enforceable safety measures, and the apathy of global governance are putting humanity on a potential path to extinction. We explore the chilling capabilities of emerging AI, the concept of a runaway "intelligence explosion," why top AI researchers are sounding the alarm, and what happens when we can no longer control our own creations.
