The Sum of All Fears



First up, we have artificial intelligence. Niall Ferguson recently read a new book by Mustafa Suleyman, which details the coming struggles between the US and China in a world dominated by artificial intelligence. 

Which brings us to the second technology: nuclear weapons. Hal Brands says the war in Ukraine has exposed the world to a new era of nuclear brinkmanship, one that is “both a throwback to Cold War-era superpower crises and a preview of what lies ahead.”

The third and final technology that could send civilization into the dustbin is nuclear fusion. But it could also save us, too: “If humanity survives for thousands more years, our primary energy source could very likely be nuclear fusion,”
