Okej, att jag just skrev det här och sen läste det här:
"H.G. Wells’ 1914 sci-fi book The World Set Free did a pretty good job predicting nuclear weapons:
'They did not see it until the atomic bombs burst in their fumbling hands…before the last war began it was a matter of common knowledge that a man could carry about in a handbag an amount of latent energy sufficient to wreck half a city'"
Dock också det här:
"Wells’ thesis was that the coming atomic bombs would be so deadly that we would inevitably create a utopian one-world government to prevent them from ever being used. Sorry, Wells. It was a nice thought."
(...och även resten är ju läsvärt angående judgement of global risk, men då får ni gott klicka på länken. Även nämnda Yudkowsky nämns.)
