I read the entire article. Check out #17 on Professor Hawking's warning list:

#17 Don't allow Hillary Clinton anywhere near secret documents again.

OK, just kidding. That was really #4 on the list.

I don’t know that as a whole, throughout history, the human race has been on such a self-destructive path as the one we are on now.

Stephen Hawking may prove to be the ultimate poster child for Romans 1:22 (Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools).

He is a fool. The guy passes himself off as a genius, but he's a crackpot genius. Half of what he's been saying for decades is flat-out wrong, and is dependent on his helpers to translate his gibberish to make any small amount of sense. The world will be better off when he's gone, so sanity will prevail.

I have a Nephew, actually he is my Niece’s husband, who has a PHD in physics and a PHD in Cosmology from the University of Chicago.

At their wedding several of his fellow students came down and I was talking to them.

One thing I recall is they said Hawking is not as highly thought of in the profession. They said, yes he is a genius but there are plenty of other geniuses who are just as smart or smarter who don’t agree with him.

Dunno.
Climate change is a scam, and nukes are not scary as the media makes ‘em out to be.
But genetically engineered viruses and bacterian are potentially deyvastating. The can spread much faster than they did in past and have the potiential to cut a swathe through the human race.

So he throws out the magical 100 years until doom metric. Speaking of about 100 years and climate change. Here are some facts for you brain dead leftists. The sub tropical island of Amami-Oshima just saw its first recorded snow in 115 years. Oh, and Taipei Taiwan just saw its first snow in 80 years. How is that possible in a warming world ?

He's right in a way.

He's exactly correct. We marvel at the new technology, but it pales to what's being researched and developed regarding AI.

I saw that movie a week or so back.

It was funny at times. “Break the wrist and walk away”.

In a sense he is almost certainly correct. Everyone reading this will almost certainly be dead in 100 years.

“The pair also signed another letter intended to encourage a ban on “autonomous weapons” capable of selecting and engaging targets without human assistance or intervention.”

Hey, that was the plot to Captain America: The Winter Soldier.

Mr. Hawking, right here, right now, I’ll bet you $1000,000 that you’re wrong.
