I'm working through my thoughts on , very concerned about the loss of .

I've read "What We Owe the Future" by William MacAskill.

I'm a subscriber of the following Podcasts:

  • “The Tech Won’t Save Us"
  • "Mystery AI Hype Theater 3000”

I follow the (sometimes disturbing) subreddits:

  • r/artificial
  • r/ArtificialIntelligence
  • r/Futurology
  • r/singularity

I'm reading “God, Human, Animal, Machine” by Meghan O’Gieblyn.

Does anyone have any other reading/listening suggestions?

I’d also recommend these books about the sordid history of demography, population control, and environmentalism:
