Paul Jorion thinks Humanity will die within 2 or 3 generations. He said “We launched the grieving process of our own species”
Paul Jorion is an anthropologist, a social scientist, he’s been a student of Claude Levi-Strauss. He also taught artificial intelligence at Cambridge in the 1980s.
According to the author, "there are 3 areas in which a total loss of control of the human can be seen:
the environmental crisis
the financial system about to implode
and our inability to face the complexity of automation of our society (robots)Global Footprint Network estimates that if we maintain our rate of consumption, we would need two planets by 2030 to sustain our needs in ressources...
Seas level could rise of 2 meters.
Future generations will experience hurricanes in the Atlantic.
The Capitalism system is about to reach it’s end.
Our system is enclosed in a short-term approach vision, always looking for boundless profits.
In 2012, the richest 1% of the United States took 120% of wealth.
Moreover, he evokes the automation of society and its social impact, particularly on labor. "If nobody works, then wealth will return to lenders and leaders.
We demand more and more to robots and computers to handle the problems that we ourselves have created. There is a striking example, is the Exchange. Everything is runs by computers.
Advances in robotics and artificial intelligence are impressive, but can we deduce that robots will replace men? Whenever we say "Such activity can only be exercised by a human," a robotic system eventually makes it.
Our world in 2100?
"By the end of the century, we will see a massive reduction of the world population. We are now in a crisis similar to that of 1914. And I fear that our species might use traditional solutions to solve it. And if we were to create a global conflict, it seems very unlikely that no one use nuclear weapons. If a major conflict arise, nuclear weapons WILL be use."A nuclear war before the end of the century, then.
So.
Environement, Economy & Robots will kill us all.
