John is convinced with $10M in six months he could succeed in making AI existential risk dinner table conversation on every street in America.John has developed a detailed plan that would launch within 24 hours of the grant award. We don’t have a single day to lose.https://futureoflife.org/BUY LOUIS BERMAN’S NEW BOOK ON AMAZON!!!https://a.co/d/8WSNNuoFOR HUMANITY MONTHLY DONATION SUBSCRIPTION LINKS:$1 MONTH https://buy.stripe.com/7sI3cje3x2Zk9SodQT$10 MONTH  https://buy.stripe.com/5kAbIP9Nh0Rc4y46oo$25 MONTH https://buy.stripe.com/3cs9AHf7B9nIggM4gh$100 MONTH https://buy.stripe.com/aEU007bVp7fAfcI5kmGet Involved!EMAIL JOHN: forhumanitypodcast@gmail.comSUPPORT PAUSE AI: https://pauseai.info/SUPPORT STOP AI: https://www.stopai.info/Check out our partner channel: Lethal Intelligence AILethal Intelligence AI - Home https://lethalintelligence.aiSUBSCRIBE TO LIRON SHAPIRA’S DOOM DEBATES on YOUTUBE!     / @doomdebates  ********************************Explore our other video content here on YouTube where you'll find more insights into 2025 AI risk preview along with relevant social media links.YouTube:    / @forhumanitypodcast Get full access to The AI Risk Network at theairisknetwork.substack.com/subscribe
