A Global Catastrophic Biological Risk Is Not Just About Biology
Global catastrophic biological risk (GCBR) is a topic with relevance for many ongoing dialogues: What is national and international security? How can science itself be of harm or good? How do we advance global health security? What comprises One Health One Humanity? The Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security has started an important conversation. Of the many themes on which one could speak, o...
متن کاملArtificial Intelligence as a Positive and Negative Factor in Global Risk Forthcoming in Global Catastrophic Risks, eds
By far the greatest danger of Artificial Intelligence is that people conclude too early that they understand it. Of course this problem is not limited to the field of AI. Jacques Monod wrote: "A curious aspect of the theory of evolution is that everybody thinks he understands it." (Monod 1974.) My father, a physicist, complained about people making up their own theories of physics; he wanted to...
متن کاملIntegrating the Planetary Boundaries and Global Catastrophic Risk Paradigms
Planetary boundaries (PBs) and global catastrophic risk (GCR) have emerged in recent years as important paradigms for understanding and addressing global threats to humanity and the environment. This article compares the PBs and GCR paradigms and integrates them into a unified PBs-GCR conceptual framework, which we call Boundary Risk for Humanity and Nature (BRIHN). PBs emphasizes global enviro...
متن کاملThe Ethics of Global Catastrophic Risk from Dual-Use Bioengineering
Global catastrophic risks (GCRs) are risks of events that could significantly harm or even destroy civilization at the global scale. GCR raises a number of profound ethical issues, with a range of ethical theories suggesting that GCR reduction should be society’s top priority. This paper discusses GCR ethics in the context of dual-use bioengineering: bioengineering that can cause either benefit...
متن کاملReducing Global Catastrophic Biological Risks
Reducing global catastrophic risks (GCRs) is one of our top priorities at the Open Philanthropy Project. We have a particular interest in addressing GCRs from biological sources—or global catastrophic biological risks (GCBRs), to use the term coined by the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security. As we build our new biosecurity and pandemic preparedness (BPP) program, we’re putting a lot of th...
