Among the many risks of a rising nihilism is that it leads to destruction. If nothing matters, everything is permitted. Mass killing (such as under Stalin) is justified under the argument that old values are dead and must be changed by force. In the end, violence and force…

It increasingly seems like one of the biggest trends (and risks) we see in various countries is the rise of nihilism: moral nihilism and the breakdown of norms where truth is relative, political ends justify any means, and corruption is normalized because nothing is sacred.

The biggest question in policy circles over the past year is how should gov't respond if/when AI causes major disruptions in employment. No one has ever answered that startups need bigger tax breaks and those out of work should lose access to healthcare, but that's what passed.
