Collective Action for Existential Safety is an initiative of the Center for Existential Safety, a new non-profit organization being formed in the United States.
Our central aim is to catalyze collective action to ensure humanity survives this decade. If we can achieve that, then we are likely to create an unimaginably good future for all.
We serve all Existential Safety Advocates globally. We believe artificial intelligence, nuclear weapons, engineered pandemics, and soon-to-be invented technologies threaten our civilization. The more of us working together to mitigate the risks, the better.
Feedback is very much welcome, but ideally it would be offered in a kind, collaborative, and well-informed manner. We believe unkind and uninformed criticism in this community has very likely reduced its positive impact on the world. My favorite guidelines for this are here. Please directly suggest changes to our actions list here.
On a personal note, I’ve been preparing for this for 26+ years now. I have short timelines and a high p(doom). But I believe we can still collectively raise our p(eutopia) if we act now as if our lives depended on it. They do. This could also be humanity’s finest hour.
Join us at existentialsafety.org. Please share the site widely and engage with us on social media. Everyone’s future is at stake and there are useful actions just about everyone can do to help.
