#404 – Lee Cronin: Controversial Nature Paper on Evolution of Life and Universe

I mean, the same thing if you get rid of nuclear weapons. Exactly. That's my point. So what we could do is if we actually started to put the AI in charge, which is I really like an AI, to be in charge of all world politics. And this sounds ridiculous for a second. Hang on. But if we could all agree on the… Yeah, yeah, yeah.

But I really don't like politicians who are basically just looking at local sampling. But if you could say globally, look, here's some game theory here. What is the minimum number of nuclear weapons we need to distribute around the world to everybody? to basically reduce war to zero.

But I don't think anyone will use them. Because I think, and look, what you've got to try and do is like to qualify for these nuclear weapons. This is a great idea. The game theorists should do this, right? I think the question is this. I really buy your question. We have too many nukes. Just from a feeling point of view that we've got too many of them.

So let's reduce the number, but not get rid of them because we'll have too much conventional warfare. So then what is the minimum number of nuclear weapons we can just do it around to remove humans hurting each other is something we should stop doing. It's not outwith our conceptual capability.

But right now, what about certain nations that are being exploited for their natural resources in the future for a short-term gain because we don't want to generate knowledge? And so if everybody had an equal doomsday switch, I predict the quality of life of the average human will go up faster.

I am an optimist and I believe that humanity is going to get better and better and better, that we're going to eliminate more problems.
