I just cannot stress enough how critical the recent address was from Nick Bostrom, AI's "pie-in-the-sky" silly ethicist, to the UN, who actually has some incredibly important information about silly nonsense stuff like warfare. It's very vital that you absorb and grok this information, because it's the most pressing problem in the world -- ever. It's quite short, and quite amazing, and it really gives the lay of the land in a few crisp sentences.
