[ExI] VIDEO – Lord Martin Rees lecture

[Anders Sandberg]

Inspired by Giulio to post video: here is a video of Lord Martin Rees 
giving the 10 year anniversary lecture for the Oxford Martin School.

"Will technology's dark side eclipse humanity's bright future?"

He answers that question in the first 10 seconds, then gets going with a 
clarification. Much of the content is unsurprising to people of this 
list, but when the Astronomer Royal talks genetic engineering, 
posthumans, existential risk and AI in the middle of the Sheldonian 
Theatre some progress has been made. He is still not a fan of cryonics, 
though :-)
