Money has no intrinsic value. Sam Bankman-Fried, Elizabeth Holmes and Bernie Madoff were extremely capable storytellers, unfortunately. What would it mean for human beings to live in a world where most of the stories, melodies, images, laws, policies and tools are shaped by a non-human, alien intelligence – which knows how to exploit our weaknesses, biases and addictions with super-human efficiency? And also knows how to form deep, intimate relationships with human beings?

Hot off the press - new climate research 🚨🌍🔥
Will warming stop once we reach net zero CO2 emissions?

Open-access publication @FrontiersIn assessing what we know and don't know about whether warming will stop once net zero CO2 emissions are reached. /1

[Frontiers in Science @FrontScience]

Climate scientists’ best estimate is that warming will stop once emissions reach net zero.

But some experts warn that significant continued warming is a risk that's currently being overlooked.
