Through interviews with AI pioneers, he delves into the unstable trajectory of the technology’s development, its potential for modest benefits – and its potentially catastrophic consequences. In More Everything Forever: AI Overlords, Space Empires, and Silicon Valley’s Crusade to Control the Fate of Humanity, Adam Becker investigates the implausible and often immoral visions of tomorrow imagined by tech titans such as Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, Sam Altman, and more. He exposes the powerful, sinister ideas dominating Silicon Valley, challenging us to see how dangerous these visions of the future truly are.
