The Existential Threats of AI and the Absence of Evidence of Artificial Behavior
3:03:14 - 3:10:02 (06:48)
The development of AI and other technological innovation increases the probability of self-destruction, but the absence of any evidence of artificial behavior raises the question of how natural AI development is for civilizations.

Artificial Intelligence
Summary
The development of artificial intelligence is correlated with other technological innovations such as nuclear weapons, genetic engineering, and nanoscale engineering, which all have the potential to either destroy us or help us avoid self-destruction. However, the absence of any clues or hints of artificial behavior or colonization raises the question of how to reconcile the natural progression of civilizations towards AI with this lack of information.
