  • Sustainability

    Open AccessLen Fisher, Thilo Gro et al.ARTICLEPeople and Nature2024

    Many of the global challenges that confront humanity are interlinked in a dynamic complex network, with multiple feedback loops, nonlinear interactions and interdependencies that make it difficult, if not impossible, to consider individual threats in isolation. These challenges are mainly dealt with, however, by considering individual threats in isolation (at least in political terms). The mitigation of dual climate and biodiversity threats, for …

  • Long term cost-effectiveness of resilient foods for global catastrophes compared to artificial general intelligence safety

  • Ecocentrism and Biosphere Life Extension

    Open AccessKarim Jebari, A SandbergARTICLEScience and Engineering Ethics2022

    The biosphere represents the global sum of all ecosystems. According to a prominent view in environmental ethics, ecocentrism, these ecosystems matter for their own sake, and not only because they contribute to human ends. As such, some ecocentrists are critical of the modern industrial civilization, and a few even argue that an irreversible collapse of the modern industrial civilization would be a good thing. However, taking a longer view and co…

  • Long-term cost-effectiveness of interventions for loss of electricity/industry compared to artificial general intelligence safety

    Open AccessDavid Denkenberger, A Sandberg et al.ARTICLEEuropean Journal of Futures…2021Referências: 7

    Extreme solar storms, high-altitude electromagnetic pulses, and coordinated cyber attacks could disrupt regional/global electricity. Since electricity basically drives industry, industrial civilization could collapse without it. This could cause anthropological civilization (cities) to collapse, from which humanity might not recover, having long-term consequences. Previous work analyzed technical solutions to save nearly everyone despite industri…

  • Defence in Depth Against Human Extinction

    Open AccessOwen Cotton‐Barratt, Max Daniel et al.ARTICLEGlobal Policy2020

    We look at classifying extinction risks in three different ways, which affect how we can intervene to reduce risk. First, how does it start causing damage? Second, how does it reach the scale of a global catastrophe? Third, how does it reach everyone? In all of these three phases there is a defence layer that blocks most risks: First, we can prevent catastrophes from occurring. Second, we can respond to catastrophes before they reach a global sca…

  • Long-term trajectories of human civilization

    Open AccessSeth D Baum, Stuart Armstrong et al.ARTICLEforesight2019Citada por: 13Referências: 6

    Purpose: This paper formalizes long-term trajectories of human civilization as a scientific and ethical field of study. The long-term trajectory of human civilization can be defined as the path that human civilization takes during the entire future time period in which human civilization could continue to exist. Approach: We focus on four types of trajectories: status quo trajectories, in which human civilization persists in a state broadly simil…

  • La voiture autonome et ses implications morales

    A Sandberg, Heather Bradshaw-Martin et al.ARTICLEMultitudes2015

    Cet article soutient que les voitures autonomes sont des robots sociaux qui doivent agir comme des tenants-lieux de leurs propriétaires humains. Pour ne pas esquiver les choix moraux incombant aux utilisateurs humains de ces technologies, on pourrait programmer les véhicules de façon à ce qu'ils puissent se comporter selon différentes théories morales, en permettant aux propriétaires de choisir celle qui a leur préférence. L'article envisage égal…

  • Natural Selection, Childrearing, and the Ethics of Marriage (and Divorce)

    Open AccessBrian D Earp, A Sandberg et al.ARTICLEPhilosophy & Technology2012

    We argue that the fragility of contemporary marriages-and the corresponding high rates of divorce-can be explained (in large part) by a three-part mismatch: between our relationship values, our evolved psychobiological natures, and our modern social, physical, and technological environment. "Love drugs" could help address this mismatch by boosting our psychobiologies while keeping our values and our environment intact. While individual couples sh…

  • Probing the improbable

    Toby Ord, Rafaela Hillerbrand et al.ARTICLEJournal of Risk Research2010Citada por: 5Referências: 1

    Some risks have extremely high stakes. For example, a worldwide pandemic or asteroid impact could potentially kill more than a billion people. Comfortingly, scientific calcultions often put very low probabilities on the occurrence of such catastrophes. In this paper, we argue that there are important new methodological problems which arise when assessing global catastrophic risks and we focus on a problem regarding probability estimation. When an…

  • To Have Your Cake and Eat It Too?' Utility, Ecology, Equity and Québec's New Forest Act, 2001

    Nicolas Houde, A SandbergARTICLECahiers de géographie du Québec2004Citada por: 3Referências: 8

    The new Québec Forest Act appears to give the provincial government a stronger position as umpire in the forest sector. A policy community interpretation suggests that the government has created a mechanism for more input from other stakeholders than the traditional powerhouse, the forest industry, and that progress is being made towards a more socially and ecologically sustainable form of forestry. Yet a closer examination of the new Forest Act …
