The late Henry Kissinger, former Google CEO Eric Schmidt, and Microsoft executive Craig Mundie warn in their book Genesis that humanity must prepare for a future where artificial intelligence surpasses human capabilities.

Published posthumously, the book urges proactive measures to align AI with human values and avoid reliance on machines that could dominate or redesign humanity.

The authors highlight risks of genetic engineering and brain-machine interfaces, warning against creating “superhuman” beings or split human lines, the Washington Times has reported.

They advocate designing AI systems that respect diverse human cultures and moral codes, stressing that survival depends on carefully managing AI’s integration into society.
