AI is unstoppable, it is a race.

On the other hand, problems related to climate change are solvable, but only using science and technology, there is no way around that. Putting the heating a few degrees lower or only use windmills and solar panels will only slow down, not mitagate the risks, it is too little too late. We need more sophisticated solutions. Do you see any other way than more intelligence? I mean better models, faster accurate simulations and prototypes.

On the world order front: machines might come to know us better than we know ourselves and provide us with a solution.

AI could be arriving just-in-time.
