Techstination series part four- Dr. Adrian Woolfson: On the Future of Species

Techstination feature for Friday, April 10, 2026

Techstination, your destination for gadgets and gear.  I’m Fred Fishkin.   This is part four of our series with Dr. Adrian Woolfson, author of On the Future of Species: Authoring Life by Means of Artificial Intelligence.  He is CEO of Genyro…which has the capability of creating new life forms today...

“What we really need to do is put guidelines in place and governance to try and regulate how these technologies are used.  That’s not going to be easy to do and there are always going to be bad actors.  And I should also say that it’s not just the deliberate misuse of the technology that we should be worried about, it’s the accidental misuse of the technology because humans tend to have a tendency to think they know more than they know.”

Which could lead to disaster.  Should we be excited…or terrified?  Dr. Woolfson says the answer is both.
