Musk’s warnings have spanned multiple fronts:
-
Artificial Intelligence: His most frequent caveat, fearing an unaligned superintelligence could render humanity obsolete or extinct.
-
Population Collapse: Arguing that declining birth rates threaten civilization’s continuity.
-
The Great Filter: The hypothesis that explains why we see no other intelligent life—because civilizations inevitably hit a wall and destroy themselves.
-
The Ultimate Deadline: A direct, cosmic expiration date for all life on Earth, driven not by human folly, but by the inevitable laws of stellar evolution.
