Every way to move this nomination, in one place.












Brain emulation just surged back into the spotlight with the State of Brain Emulation Report published on October 17, 2025, and Anders Sandberg, the original editor of the 2008 Whole Brain Emulation roadmap, is central to making sense of what these advances mean for AI safety and compute planning today. He also recently delivered an Oxford Martin School seminar on heavy‑tailed disasters, a framework for thinking about rare but civilization‑scale risks that policymakers and builders are grappling with right now.
He has been publicly mapping the physical bottlenecks of superintelligence, including energy, datacenter capacity, and waste‑heat limits, in a July 11, 2025 conversation that resonates with the Dwarkesh audience of founders and engineers making 2026 deployment calls. Putting him on the Dwarkesh Podcast now can shape how leaders allocate compute, regulation, and risk buffers this quarter, before momentum hardens into norms that are hard to reverse.
Support this nomination so the episode lands while his insights can still move decisions today.
