Researchers at one of the world's leading AI labs are warning that humans may soon be little more than "meat robots" for near-future artificial intelligence systems. During a recent interview with AI podcaster Dwarkesh Patel, Anthropic researchers Sholto Douglas and Trenton Bricken were surprisingly casual when fretting that the technology they're working to build may soon render us into AI-controlled androids — or, at the very least, further grim job loss to the technology. "There is this who

There are two places memorable props from blockbuster movies and TV tend to end up: in someone’s personal collection, or on the auction block (destined for someone’s personal collection). But sometimes, a much-coveted item goes missing, lost in the sands of time or maybe in a long-forgotten storage unit.

We could be severely undercounting the number of humans living on Earth, researchers suggest. While the United Nations has determined that as of last summer, there were about 8.2 billion humans sharing the limited resources of our planet, a new estimate finds that figure could be off by anywhere from hundreds of millions to an astonishing several billion people. That might sound like an alarming revelation. But as Queen Mary University of London professor Jonathan Kennedy argues in a recent op

As a genre, science fiction has a proud heritage of shaping the future. We find it entertaining to imagine what the world could be like. Science fiction enables us to explore possible futures, and through exploring them, decide for ourselves what future we want to create. For example, the space-race of the 1950's and 60's, was driven by a spirit of optimism and excitement for humanity breaking free of the Earth to explore the solar system and beyond.
