In part 2 of our discussion with Jamie Metzl, author of Superconvergence: How the Genetics, Biotech, and AI Revolutions Will Transform our Lives, Work, and World, Jaime tells Jason about his idea for creating a new global body tasked with regulated existential risks. Jaime is a super order who sees most of the threats facing humanity as fundamentally linked and wishes to adopt one coherent and coordinated approach to Order the Disorder.
