Why global cooperation is essential before AI outpaces human governance
In short: Philosopher Susan Schneider explores the urgent risks of advanced artificial intelligence, from autonomous agents to the ethics of mind uploading. This discussion highlights why humanity must establish international safeguards before technology exceeds our ability to control it.
Drawing on insights from MindFest 2025, Schneider examines the intersection of AI safety and transhumanism. She addresses the profound implications of autonomous agents and the potential for mind uploading, questioning how these advancements will reshape human existence.
The core concern is a race against time: humanity requires a framework for global cooperation to manage capabilities that are rapidly accelerating. As an expert in cognitive robotics and complex systems, Schneider provides a philosophical and technical perspective on why proactive governance is not just a policy preference, but a necessity for survival.
