Eschatologist #12 Predictions

It's that time of year when people make predictions. I also make predictions though I do them somewhat differently. Mostly I'm interested in Identifying potential catastrophes and dismissing potential salvation. For example, nukes will get used again, and a benevolent AI won't save us. 

The key thing is not to make accurate predictions, but to make useful predictions. And as it turns out there's a big difference between the two.
