Nick Bostrom is a philosopher, author, and one of the world’s foremost thinkers on the future of humanity. A professor at the University of Oxford and founding director of the Future of Humanity Institute, Bostrom has pioneered global discourse on artificial intelligence, existential risk, and long-term thinking.
He rose to international prominence with his seminal book Superintelligence, which warned of the profound consequences of developing AI systems surpassing human intelligence. His work has influenced policymakers, tech leaders, and academic institutions seeking to navigate AI’s accelerating evolution.
Beyond AI, Bostrom explores the philosophical underpinnings of progress, ethics, and transhumanism. He brings rigorous, systems-level thinking to issues ranging from biotech to digital consciousness, urging society to confront questions often ignored in short-term decision-making.
As a speaker, Bostrom offers clarity on the most complex challenges facing our future. He engages audiences in deep, provocative thought—grounding abstract ideas in tangible implications for leadership, policy, and civilization’s trajectory.
