The Dark Side Of AI

Renowned physicist and cosmologist Max Tegmark says there is a  dark side to artificial intelligence (AI) and how it could be used to harm humanity.

Tegmark, known for his pioneering work in the fields of cosmology and artificial intelligence, tells London Real’s Brian Rose that AI is impacting society and has already caused a lot of harm. “It could be a lot more, unless we get with it,” he says. He explains further.

Globe Vs. Flat Earth

Greek philosopher Eratosthenes seemingly debunked the flat-earth theory with his sticks and shadows experiment in 250 B.C. Celebrated astronomer and cosmologist Carl Sagan endorsed his work many centuries later, proving it was impossible the Earth was flat.

But has their work stood the test of time and advancements in technology? Eric Dubay thinks not. He says Eratosthenes’ calculations were made assuming the Sun to be millions of miles away, but claims we have a “local sun” that is less than a few thousands miles from Earth. Check out his compelling argument on the Eric Dubay channel.
