The problems appear to be urgent, and in need of actual solutions, not simply further debate, but it’s not at all clear to me that people who currently identify as philosophers are, as a group, those most suited to work on them.
I’m not saying they are ‘most suited to work on them’, either. But I think they can contribute. Do you think that Chalmers and Bostrom have not already contributed, in small ways?

Bostrom, yes, Chalmers, I have to admit that I haven’t followed his work enough to issue an opinion.
