Episode notes

Host John Sherman conducts an important interview with Anthony Aguirre, Executive Director of the Future of Life Institute. The Future of Life Institute reached out to For Humanity to see if Anthony could come on to promote his very impressive new campaign called Keep The Future Human. The campaign includes a book, an essay, a website, a video, it’s all incredible work. Please check it out:

John and Anthony have a broad ranging AI risk conversation, covering in some detail Anthony’s four essential measures for a human future. They also discuss parenting into this unknown future.

In 2021, the Future of Life Institute received a donation in cryptocurrency of more than $650 million from a single donor. With AGI doom bearing down on humanity, arriving any day now, AI risk communications floundering, the public in the dark still, and that massive war chest gathering dust in a bank, John asks Anthony the uncomfortable but necessary question: What is FLI waiting for to spend the money?

Then John asks Anthony for $10 million to fund creative media projects under John’s direction. John is convinced with $10M in six months he could succeed in making AI existential risk dinner table conversation on every street in America.

John has developed a detailed plan that would launch within 24 hours of the grant award. We don’t have a single day to lose.
