Casino dice mid-roll

Are we all
gonna die?

Six risks. Six scores.
From extinction to the good life.
Where do you put us?

Which one keeps you up at night?

THE MACHINE
The AI and robots we build that we no longer fully understand.
PLANET
The living systems we depend on that we damaged and that are no longer waiting for us.
WAR
The old ways of killing, now scaled to weapons that can end the argument for everyone.
PANDEMIC
The biological risks we lived through last time in ways that should not make us comfortable.
COLLAPSE
The financial, political and institutional order that holds until enough of it stops at once.
BRAINROT
The falling fertility, fractured attention and collapsed shared reality already well underway.

Are we gonna make it?

Extinction Very bad Rough Muddling Hopeful Good life

This is your honest guess. Not what you're supposed to say.

Rolled

Five more risks. Each one cheerful in its own way.
Some make this one worse. A few might cancel it out.
Probably worth knowing.

You've had a look at it.

Here is what people who think about this actually read. And watch. And do.

◆ START HERE

Wall-E. 2008.

A film about Planet, Collapse, and Brainrot simultaneously. The Earth is abandoned. Humans float in chairs, screens in their faces, bodies soft, attention gone. A robot tidies up after us. It is a children's film. It is also the most complete vision of where several of these risks converge. Start here.

We cannot predict so we might as well guess.
But guessing informed beats guessing blind.
