Joscha Bach: AI risk and the future of life (matthewgeleta.com)

Discovered Joscha Bach on a Lex Friedman podcast earlier this year, and found him a clear and coherent philosopher.

I wanted to share this latest interview which discusses among other topics the AI doomerism narrative.


He has a very interesting definition of "god" as a coherent multi-agent but at that level of generality any multicellular organism also qualifies as a god. Does he clarify during the interview what is the difference between abstract gods and concrete ones like multicellular organisms?
