Humanity&rsquo;s attempts to achieve artificial superintelligence will be our downfall, according to <a href="https://www.penguin.co.uk/books/474267/if-anyone-builds-it-everyone-dies-by-soares-eliezer-yudkowsky-and-nate/9781847928924">If Anyone Builds It, Everyone Dies</a>. That&rsquo;s the new book out by AI experts Nates Soares and Eliezer Yudkowsky. And while their provocation may feel extreme in this moment when AI slop abounds and the media is hyping a bubble on the verge of bursting, Soares is so convinced of his argument that he&rsquo;s calling for a complete stop to AI development. Today on the show, Nate and Maria ask Soares how he came to this conclusion and what everyone else is missing. <hr> For more from Nate and Maria, subscribe to their newsletters: <a href="https://mariakonnikova.substack.com/">The Leap</a>&nbsp;from Maria Konnikova <a href="https://www.natesilver.net/">Silver Bulletin</a>&nbsp;from Nate Silver&nbsp;See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.
