David Brin on the Future of Humanity

What might humanity look like decades, millennia—or even millions of years—from now? Science-fiction author and futurist David Brin joins Robert Lawrence Kuhn to explore humanity’s possible futures. They discuss artificial intelligence, genetic engineering, nanotechnology, space exploration, alien civilizations and the Fermi paradox, as well as consciousness, the nature of truth, and whether there is any deeper meaning to human existence. Brin considers both the existential risks humanity faces and the possibilities that could emerge if civilization survives and continues to develop.
