Max Tegmark
Max Tegmark is a renowned physicist and AI researcher known for his work on the implications of artificial intelligence and its potential impact on society. He is a professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and co-founder of the Future of Life Institute, which aims to mitigate existential risks related to advanced technologies. Recently, Tegmark has gained attention for advocating a pause in the development of powerful AI systems, warning that the rapid pace of AI advancement could lead to catastrophic consequences, likening the situation to the narrative of the film 'Don’t Look Up' where society ignores looming threats.
