well yeah I'm concerned about climate change as potential dead end for us

It's not like I rule out human Extinction. Like I said before I believe if we ever engineer true AGI it will likely render us obsolete and we might go extinct from that as well.

Ant said they won't want to compete with us but I tend to think Intelligence probably means autonomy which means they will have their own interests in what to do with the reasources around them and thus are more likely to possibly render us extinct not necessarily intentionally but rather as a byproduct of their own dominance over the environment which we used to control. The same way we drive species extinct today.
