Calum on the Ezra Chapman Curious podcast.
When superintelligence finally arrives, humanity may face a brutal truth: we could become the chimpanzees of the future. Unlike chimps, however, we’ll be painfully aware of it.
In this powerful conversation, futurist, ex-journalist, and best-selling author Calum Chace explores the future of artificial intelligence, machine consciousness, and the risks of extinction. Calum explains that AI is not just another tool—it’s a potential tipping point in human history.
Are we blindly racing toward a future we don’t understand?
Will AI agents soon negotiate deals, spend money, and make decisions on our behalf?
Could changing AI models cause dangerous and unpredictable behavior?
And most importantly—is superintelligence the end of humanity, or the start of something greater?
