Philosopher and historian of human extinction (sadly, an increasingly relevant topic). Coined the term “TESCREAL” w/ Timnit Gebru. Salon, Truthdig, WaPo, Aeon, etc.
New piece on the surprising similarities between Eliezer Yudkowsky and Ted Kaczynski, the Unabomber. This might sound like hyperbole, but it's not. In my view, the Rationalist community is a ticking time bomb--it's only a matter of time before someone does something inexcusable.
