"When you look at the production of existential risk Its highly concentrated, its done for profit and its done in secret"
I think I have my first man-crush. Luke Kemp is telling some stories I can get behind.

P Gurgel-SegrilloEverything You’ve Been Told About Pre-History is Wrong
It’s the question that will come to define our lives: is our society going to collapse? But the field of collapse research is fragmented, chaotic, and often just plain deranged. Who can you trust?
Luke Kemp is the author of Goliath’s Curse and a Research Affiliate at the Cambridge University Centre for the Study of Existential Risk. And he’s also a political radical

The Bad PlaceNovara Media | You Can’t Have Billionaires and Democracy. Ancient Collapse Proves It. by Novara Media
AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.
The new Novara Media series “Do Your Own Research” investigates whether modern societies are headed toward collapse, drawing parallels with past empires. Host Richard Hames talks with Luke Kemp—author of *Goliath’s Curse* and a research affiliate at Cambridge University’s Centre for the Study of Existential Risk—who warns that we are near the same tipping point that toppled earlier empires, describing states as criminal gangs in disguise and likening ancient Rome to a modern ISIS, while arguing that billionaire power undermines democracy; the show, featuring music by Iglooghost, was published on 25 April 2026.
AnthonyI thought the Ronan Farrow/Andrew Marantz New Yorker article on OpenAI and Sam Altman in particular reveals many important details and helps settle several speculations (e.g. about what happened when Altman was briefly fired from OpenAI). The overall portrayal of Altman as frankly a compulsive liar is much needed.
However, like many Farrow and Marantz seem to take the so-called "existential risk" framing of AI seriously. I really wish people would stop doing that. In this case it makes the article feel incoherent in places.
This technology by itself does not pose a unique risk. It's the people, organizations, and governments around it, and their behavior with respect to it, that generate risk. Treating the technology alone as uniquely existentially risky provides cover for a wide variety of bad actors to both continue doing their work as well as to shrug and say "oops" if something goes catastrophically wrong or if smaller harms accumulate into intolerably large ones. The very framing provides an accountability shield, which by my read contradicts what Farrow himself suggests is needed, namely more accountability. I take this from this article, his previous work, and comments he makes in interviews (e.g., this one with Decoder.
We need to stop catastrophizing. It's thought and action terminating.

Florian U. JehnWho actually shapes global risk?
One common answer is to focus on individual apocalyptic actors, like terrorists aiming to end the world. But are these groups really what we should be on the lookout for most? Or should we not also consider institutional actors, like states, large militaries, or companies, who actually have the power and resources to meaningfully tip the global balance?
