“The time will come when the Universe calls it a draw, and our planet, along with most of its living forms, will cease to exist. This existential event may happen a few years from now, a few hundred years from, a few thousand years from now, or a few billion years from now. No one really knows, when exactly. What we do know is that whatever causes a reset of our planet, will happen in a spontaneous combustion existential event.”

“The worst extreme existential risk for humanity is not a nuclear war, the impact of a mega killer cosmic rock, nor a catastrophic disaster or a pandemic. The worst existential risk is humanity loosing its attraction towards risk. Without it, the stimulation to innovate would disappear, along with the progress of our civilization.”
