A conversation with Bjorn Lomborg, a visiting fellow at the Hoover Institution, the president of the Copenhagen Consensus Center, and one of the foremost climate experts in the world today. His new book — “False Alarm: How Climate Change Panic Costs Us Trillions, Hurts the Poor, and Fails to Fix the Planet” — is an argument for treating climate as a serious problem but not an extinction-level event requiring such severe and drastic steps as rewiring a large part of the culture and the economy.

The Anthropology of Karens

People grow up in a web of relationships that is already in place, supporting them as they grow. From the inside out, it includes parents, extended family and clan, neighborhood groups and civic associations, church, local and provincial governments and finally national government.

Geoffrey Hinton & John Hopfield

The so-called “Godfather of AI” who won the Nobel Prize is Geoffrey Hinton. He was awarded the 2024 Nobel Prize in Physics alongside John Hopfield for their foundational discoveries and inventions that enabled machine learning with artificial neural networks.

Hinton, a British-Canadian computer scientist and cognitive psychologist, is widely recognized for his pioneering work on neural networks, particularly the development of the Boltzmann machine and contributions to the backpropagation algorithm, which have been critical to modern AI systems like ChatGPT.

The work of each, starting in the 1980s, laid the groundwork for the AI revolution, earning them the title “Godfathers of AI.”

John J. Hopfield delivered his Nobel Prize lecture “Physics is a point of view” on 8 December 2024 at the Aula Magna, Stockholm University. He was introduced by Professor Ellen Moons, Chair of the Nobel Committee for Physics.

Roger Scruton Memorial Lectures


“Stand up for your friends especially when they’re right.  There is every reason in the world to do so but one is not obvious — although perhaps it should be — and it’s this:  it might be the only chance you get to show them how much they mean to you if you don’t seize this opportunity whenever it comes along. 

To save the truth of your feelings for their funeral or obituaries it’s not much use to anyone then but if you defend a friend while they’re alive you might just give them the slightest intimation of how much you value them and love them and how much other people love them too…”

Douglas Murray
