Tech Billionaires and Doomsday Bunkers
Tech billionaires, including Mark Zuckerberg, Sam Altman, and Reid Hoffman, are investing in doomsday bunkers and secret compounds amid fears of AI and climate change.
This has led people to wonder if they know something about a coming disaster caused by artificial intelligence (AI), climate change, or war.
Experts on the subject tend to agree that talk of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI), or AI as smart as or smarter than humans, may be more hype and marketing than imminent reality.
Despite this, billionaires are still "investing" in remote safe houses and bunkers, often referred to as "apocalypse insurance" plans.
A new report by the BBC found that such fears are likely exaggerated or unfounded.
