This is the video of my interview for the Formwelt Institute. It is about 40 minutes long during which time Gitta Peyn and I cover a variety of interesting topics such as: how I got called the Larry King of the Singularity; the misperception around the singularity and transhumanism; why humanity and not AI is the biggest threat to humanity; the potential for human speciation; techno-solutionism as the most common mistake we make today; why climate change is first and foremost an ideological, political and philosophical problem; the importance and function of story; progress, price, value and the End of History; why technology is a magnifying mirror.
