  • Estimating Remaining Lifetime of Humanity Abstract 1. Introduction
    Estimating remaining lifetime of humanity Yigal Gurevich [email protected] Abstract In this paper, we estimate the remaining time for human existence, applying the Doomsday argument and the Strong Self-Sampling Assumption to the reference class consisting of all members of the Homo sapiens, formulating calculations in traditional demographic terms of population and time, using the theory of parameter estimation and available paleodemographic data. The remaining lifetime estimate is found to be 170 years, and the probability of extinction in the coming year is estimated as 0.43%. 1. Introduction Modern humans, Homo sapiens, exist according to available data for at least 130,000 years [4], [5]. It is interesting, however, to estimate the time remaining for the survival of humanity. To determine this value there was proposed the so-called doomsday argument [1] - probabilistic reasoning that predicts the future of the human species, given only an estimate of the total number of humans born so far. This method was first proposed by Brandon Carter in 1983 [2]. Nick Bostrom modified the method by formulating the Strong Self-Sampling Assumption (SSSA): each observer-moment should reason as if it were randomly selected from the class of all observer-moments in its reference class. [3]. In this paper, we apply the SSSA method to the reference class consisting of all members of our species, formulating calculations in traditional demographic terms of population and time, using the parameter estimation theory and the available paleodemographic data. 1 To estimate the remaining time t we will fulfill the assumption that the observer has an equal chance to be anyone at any time.

  • Anthropic Measure of Hominid (And Other) Terrestrials. Brandon Carter Luth, Observatoire De Paris-Meudon
    Anthropic measure of hominid (and other) terrestrials. Brandon Carter LuTh, Observatoire de Paris-Meudon. Provisional draft, April 2011. Abstract. According to the (weak) anthropic principle, the a priori proba- bility per unit time of finding oneself to be a member of a particular popu- lation is proportional to the number of individuals in that population, mul- tiplied by an anthropic quotient that is normalised to unity in the ordinary (average adult) human case. This quotient might exceed unity for conceiv- able superhuman extraterrestrials, but it should presumably be smaller for our terrestrial anthropoid relations, such as chimpanzees now and our pre- Neanderthal ancestors in the past. The (ethically relevant) question of how much smaller can be addressed by invoking the anthropic finitude argument, using Bayesian reasonning, whereby it is implausible a posteriori that the total anthropic measure should greatly exceed the measure of the privileged subset to which we happen to belong, as members of a global civilisation that has (recently) entered a climactic phase with a timescale of demographic expansion and technical development short compared with a breeding gen- eration. As well as “economist’s dream” scenarios with continual growth, this finitude argument also excludes “ecologist’s dream” scenarios with long term stabilisation at some permanently sustainable level, but it it does not imply the inevitability of a sudden “doomsday” cut-off. A less catastrophic likelihood is for the population to decline gradually, after passing smoothly through a peak value that is accounted for here as roughly the information content ≈ 1010 of our genome. The finitude requirement limits not just the future but also the past, of which the most recent phase – characterised by memetic rather than genetic evolution – obeyed the Foerster law of hyperbolic population growth.

  • The End of the World: the Science and Ethics of Human Extinction John Leslie
    THE END OF THE WORLD ‘If you want to know what the philosophy professors have got to say, John Leslie’s The End of the World is the book to buy. His willingness to grasp the nettles makes me admire philosophers for tackling the big questions.’ THE OBSERVER ‘Leslie’s message is bleak but his touch is light. Wit, after all, is preferable to the desperation which, in the circumstances, seems the only other response.’ THE TIMES ‘John Leslie is one of a very small group of philosophers thoroughly conversant with the latest ideas in physics and cosmology. Moreover, Leslie is able to write about these ideas with wit, clarity and penetrating insight. He has established himself as a thinker who is unafraid to tackle the great issues of existence, and able to sift discerningly through the competing— and frequently bizarre—concepts emanating from fundamental research in the physical sciences. Leslie is undoubtedly the world’s expert on Brandon Carter’s so-called Doomsday Argument—a philosophical poser that is startling yet informative, seemingly outrageous yet intriguing, and ultimately both disturbing and illuminating. With his distinctive and highly readable style, combined with a bold and punchy treatment, Leslie offers a fascinating glimpse of the power of human reasoning to deduce our place in the universe.’ PAUL DAVIES, PROFESSOR OF NATURAL PHILOSOPHY, UNIVERSITY OF ADELAIDE, AUTHOR OF THE LAST THREE MINUTES ‘This book is vintage John Leslie: it presents a bold and provocative thesis supported by a battery of arguments and references to the most recent advances in science. Leslie is one of the most original and interesting thinkers today.

Mellon Professor of English ii Copyright © Bradley J. Fest 2013 iii THE APOCALYPSE ARCHIVE: AMERICAN LITERATURE AND THE NUCLEAR BOMB Bradley J. Fest, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2013 This dissertation looks at global nuclear war as a trope that can be traced throughout twentieth century American literature. I argue that despite the non-event of nuclear exchange during the Cold War, the nuclear referent continues to shape American literary expression. Since the early 1990s the nuclear referent has dispersed into a multiplicity of disaster scenarios, producing a “second nuclear age.” If the atomic bomb once introduced the hypothesis “of a total and remainderless destruction of the archive,” today literature’s staged anticipation of catastrophe has become inseparable from the realities of global risk.

  • L'argument De La Simulation Et Le Problème De La Classe De Référence
    The Simulation Argument and the Reference Class Problem : a Dialectical Contextualism Analysis Paul FRANCESCHI [email protected] www.paulfranceschi.com English postprint of a paper initially published in French in Philosophiques, 2016, 43-2, pp. 371-389, under the title L’argument de la Simulation et le problème de la classe de référence : le point de vue du contextualisme dialectique ABSTRACT. I present in this paper an analysis of the Simulation Argument from a dialectical contextualist’s standpoint. This analysis is grounded on the reference class problem. I begin with describing in detail Bostrom’s Simulation Argument. I identify then the reference class within the Simulation Argument. I also point out a reference class problem, by applying the argument successively to three different reference classes: aware- simulations, imperfect simulations and immersion-simulations. Finally, I point out that there are three levels of conclusion within the Simulation Argument, depending on the chosen reference class, that yield each final conclusions of a fundamentally different nature. 1. The Simulation Argument I shall propose in what follows an analysis of the Simulation Argument, recently described by Nick Bostrom (2003). I will first describe in detail the Simulation Argument (SA for short), focusing in particular on the resulting counter-intuitive consequence. I will then show how such a consequence can be avoided, based on the analysis of the reference class underlying SA, without having to give up one’s pre-theoretical intuitions. The general idea behind SA can be stated as follows. It is very likely that post-human civilizations will possess a computing power that will be completely out of proportion with that of ours today.

  • Groundbreaking Predictions About COVID-19 Pandemic Duration, Number of Infected and Dead: a Novel Mathematical Approach Never Used in Epidemiology

No reuse allowed without permission. Groundbreaking predictions about COVID-19 pandemic duration, number of infected and dead: A novel mathematical approach never used in epidemiology. García de Alcañíz J. G. DVM; López-Rodas V. DVM, PhD and Costas E. BSc, PhD * Genetics, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Complutense University, 28040 Madrid, Spain *Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract Hundreds of predictions about the duration of the pandemic and the number of infected and dead have been carried out using traditional epidemiological tools (i.e. SIR, SIRD models, etc.) or new procedures of big-data analysis. However, the extraordinary complexity of the disease and the lack of knowledge about the pandemic (i.e. R value, mortality rate, etc.) create uncertainty about the accuracy of these estimates. However, several elegant mathematical approaches, based on physics and probability principles, like the Delta-� argument, Lindy’s Law or the Doomsday principle-Carter’s catastrophe, which have been successfully applied by scientists to unravel complex phenomena characterized by their great uncertainty (i.e. Human race’s longevity; How many more humans will be born before extinction) allow predicting parameters of the Covid-19 pandemic. These models predict that the COVID-19 pandemic will hit us until at least September-October 2021, but will likely last until January- September 2022, causing a minimum of 36,000,000 infected and most likely 60,000,000, as well as 1,400,000 dead at best and most likely 2,333,000.

  • The Doomsday Simulation Argument
    THE DOOMSDAY SIMULATION ARGUMENT. OR WHY ISN’T THE END NIGH AND YOU ARE NOT LIVING IN A SIMULATION. BY ISTVÁN A. ARANYOSI Philosophy, Central European University E-mail: [email protected] There has been a revigoration in recent years of discussions surrounding two independent traditional philosophical topics, but from a new perspective, and a shared analytical ground. The two topics are: the end of the world, and scepticism about the external world; the common analytical ground is that of anthropic reasoning. More precisely, the topics I have in mind regard the probability we should assign to our species going extinct in a short time to come, and the probability we should assign to the hypothesis that we are living in a Matrix-like computer simulation. As regards anthropic reasoning, it is customary to understand it as the formulation of an anthropic principle; we will adopt a formulation due to John Leslie (1996, p. 190): “observers can most expect to find themselves in the spatiotemporal regions where most of them are found”. In this paper I will propose and discuss an argument (1) combining the ideas typical to two previously exposed arguments —the Doomsday Argument (DA) and the Simulation Argument (SA)—but (2) having, at the same time, a conclusion contrary to both those of the aforementioned arguments, which I will call ‘the Doomsday Simulation Argument (DSA)’. I will first briefly expose DA and SA, then I will formulate and defend the premises and analyse the conclusions of DSA. DOOMSDAY Let us then start with DA (Carter 199?, Leslie 1996).
