Philosopher Peter Singer on AI, Transhumanism and Ethics
https://www.singularityweblog.com/peter-singer/
Peter Singer is arguably the most influential living philosopher of our day. His book on Animal Liberation basically started the animal rights movement and his textbook on Practical Ethics is the standard philosophy text of first-year students across the world. No wonder that Time Magazine called Peter Singer one of the 100 most influential people in the world. But for me, personally, having Professor Peter Singer on Singularity.FM was a dream come true.
During our 1-hour conversation with Peter Singer we cover a variety of interesting topics such as: ethics and philosophy; why he is not an animal lover; why he is a flexible vegan; 3D printed meat; Peter’s personal mentors and inspirations; transhumanism and human nature; his biggest dreams and fears; why I went vegan; his greatest ethical failure; Ayn Rand and objectivism; climate change, instinct and evolution; intelligence and ethics; whether life-extension is moral; AI and the technological singularity; technology and ethics.
