Ep. 61: Dwarkesh Patel & Niklas Debate Existential Risk of AI, Technical Possibilities & Limitations and the Influence of Political Authority

Dwarkesh Patel is a podcaster.

The Dwarkesh Podcast (YouTube | Spotify | Apple) interviews intellectuals, scientists, historians, economists, and founders about their big idea.

The themes of Dwarkesh are similar to this podcast: frontier technologies, how to accelerate progress and the implications for humanity.

Recently, Dwarkesh has had prominent guests talking AI such as Marc Andreessen, Eliezer Yudkowsky, Carl Shulman, Ilya Sutskever and Dario Amodei.

In this episode, Niklas and Dwarkesh debate whether AI poses a high or low risk to human existence (neither of us denies that the risk is 0).

Niklas stands more on the low to negligible-risk side and Dwarkesh sees a greater risk. This ends up in a friendly, rational and learning debate.

Dwarkesh is a rising star in the podcasting world, and his channel is highly recommended content for listeners who enjoy this podcast.
