Emerging technologies and the future of humanity
A number of emergening and future technologies have the potential to transform – for better or for worse – society and the conditions for humanity. In order to avoid a situation where in effect we run blindfolded at full speed into unknown and dangerous territories, we need to understand what the possible and probable future scenarios are. The purpose of the meeting is to shed light on these issues and discuss how a more systematic treatment might be possible.Detailed programme and abstracts can be downloaded at kva.se/kalendarium Speakers:Seth Baum, Global Catastrophic Risk Institute,
