well, we had a good run...Stephen Hawking may prove to be the ultimate poster child for Romans 1:22 (Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools).
I’ll be dead by then
well, we had a good run...Thus proving that even a genius can be dopey.
Really.
He’s right in a way.
Our ability to advance technologically has far out stripped our ability to use it wisely.
If the kind of power that technology can give someone falls into the hands of someone evil, which it surely will, it will be disastrous.
Matter of fact, I believe Scripture addresses that in several places.....
So he’s right, but for the wrong reasons.
I read this real fast and thought it say Next 100 years may spell doom for Hannity.
Well, it certainly will I guess, anyway.
Artificial intelligence could be a great boon to mankind. But sufficiently enabled, it could indeed be our downfall. Ask it to stop abortion, and the most certain way is to eliminate man. Or stop all pregnancies. Ask it to solve world hunger, and it might decide to reduce the population. But it can only do those things if it is sufficiently enabled. The key is to not enable it.
And the Cern large hydron collider has already thrown us into an alternate mirror mirror universe where America spies on it's own citizens and elects marxist muslims as president, while Russia lectures us on Christian values.

Hawking is like a farmer,
he’s outstanding in his field.
Take him out of the area of his
expertise, and he’s the same
numbskull as the rest of us.
You are correct sir. Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. (2 Tim 3:7)
Does he still think the aliens are coming to kill us?
#17 Don't allow Hillary Clinton anywhere near secret documents again.
OK, just kidding. That was really #4 on the list.
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 ?
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.
