Blast Zone of 20 Megaton Warhead

The Inferno

Project Frankenstein 20 th century  technology increasingly seems to become a Frankenstein monster  turning on its creators Enormous benefits  spawned a variety of lethal problems  from global warming to threat of mass destruction Help of technology  1 st time man has both the means to greatly lengthen/improve life or bring about his own extinction

Why the future does not need us Bill Joy

The 3 transhumanist technologies Genetic engineering, nanotechnology and artificial intelligence Ironically  these technology of transcendence and immortality  also the ones that allows KMD (knowledge-enabled mass destruction)

KMD What is KMD? How does KMD differ from old modes of mass destruction? Do you agree that these KMD technologies made the extinction of mankind inevitable?

Hubris? The ancient Greeks  called the pride of being like the god ‘hubris’ Do you think death can be conquered by technological means? Do you think the transhumanist enterprise is ultimately one of hubris?

Solutions: if any Can we arrest the technological trends leading towards AI, nanotech and genetic engineering? Should we? And if we cannot or should not, how do we manage the inherent dangers of the transhumanist technologies?
