We have talked about how AI will change your job, your body, and your school. Now, we must talk about how it could end your world—or save it. In this finale, Danny dives into the "Alignment Problem," the single hardest engineering challenge in human history. We look at why a robot trying to make you happy might accidentally destroy the universe, why your bank’s AI might be sexist, and why "pulling the plug" is harder than it sounds. This is the final exam for humanity.
