Will Steffen on the climate challenge: “It's not a technological or a scientific problem, it’s a question of humanities’ socio-political values... We need a social tipping point that flips our thinking before we reach a tipping point in the climate system."

I'm calling for the word #sustainabler. Very few things are truly sustainable across population and time. The threshold for calling a product or process sustainable is ridiculously low, misleading, and encourages conscience-free and unwitting consumption.

Many people advocating a 'circular economy' support economic growth. Could they explain how elements already in this closed loop defy the laws of physics by growing without extraction or pollution?

Oh lol. Now when I ask it about #Rowing it has no idea about how the importance of #SteadyState . I take it back. This tool needs a huge amount of work before it’s ready for prime time. I was worried for google. Now I worry for open AI getting litigated if they can’t stop their chat tool from giving advice that may hurt someone.

In all fairness #OpenAI states all the warnings and this tool is very much in testing. But it shows some dangerous signs too.
