Futureproof with Jonathan McCrea
When it comes to the end of humanity, there are numerous ways it might come to pass - be it a wayward asteroid, the eruption of a super volcano, the ever-growing presence of Artificial Intelligence in our lives, or the unseen spores of a killer fungus. But which one of these poses the greatest risk? This is the question posed by Jonathan in this very special episode of Futureproof which was recorded in front of a live audience at the Dublin Royal Convention Centre. Joining us to discuss is: Dr. Robert Ross, Senior Lecturer in the School of Computer Science at TU Dublin Professor Chris Bean, Senior Professor and Head of Geophysics at the Dublin Institute for Advanced Studies Professor Caitriona Jackman, Senior Professor of Space Physics at Dunsink Observatory Jerry Clancy, PhD student at the School of Chemical Sciences in DCU Dr. Shane Bergin, physicist and an assistant professor in science education at UCD's School of Education & Immunologist, Dr. Lara Dungan, also join Jonathan for this week's Newsround.
