Hu Jiaqi Charts Humanity's Future with Academic Dedication: Four Dialogues with Nobel Laureates

Share this news:

-- In June 2026, Mr. Hu Jiaqi, Chairman of Humanitas Ark, successfully concluded his meeting with Professor Eric Maskin, the 2007 Nobel Laureate in Economics. Within just a few months, Hu Jiaqi has established a regular pattern of engaging with world‑class scholars, having held academic dialogues with four Nobel laureates from different fields — Michael Levitt, Barry Barish, Sir Konstantin Novoselov, and Eric Maskin — spanning the core disciplines of physics, chemistry, and economics.

As the world’s earliest pioneer in systematically studying technological crises and a principal architect of the theoretical framework on human technological risk, Hu Jiaqi has transcended the boundaries of any single discipline. His work consistently centers on the perpetual survival and universal well‑being of humanity, exploring the path to balance between humanity and technology. With his unique and forward‑looking research perspective, Hu Jiaqi's academic ideas have earned unanimous recognition and high praise from Nobel laureates.

In March of this year, Hu Jiaqi held an academic exchange with Professor Michael Levitt, Nobel Laureate in Chemistry, which lasted two and a half hours. Professor Levitt expressed keen interest in the academic theoretical framework that Hu Jiaqi had built over more than forty years. In April, Professor Barry Barish, the "father of gravitational waves" and Nobel Laureate in Physics, visited Hu Jiaqi's Beijing office. During this in‑depth dialogue, which lasted over two hours, he highly affirmed Hu Jiaqi's early warnings about the technological crisis and commended his perseverance in investing tremendous resources and energy over forty years despite repeated setbacks. Professor Barish expressed profound admiration for Hu Jiaqi's lifelong dedication to such a grand and serious cause, and for his vision of building "a peaceful, friendly, equitably prosperous, and non‑competitive society." Before parting, the eminent physicist wrote in the guestbook: "Thank you for your thoughtful dedication to preserving humanity. The dangers you present are real. I hope we (mankind) can follow your lead."

In May, Hu Jiaqi met with Professor Sir Konstantin Novoselov, Nobel Laureate in Physics and the "father of graphene." The professor deeply resonated with Hu Jiaqi's decades‑long tenacity and persistent spirit, and was profoundly impressed by the ideas contained in his books, expressing his intention to read them carefully. In June, Professor Eric Maskin's visit brought this series of academic dialogues to a new height. As one of the founding fathers of mechanism design theory, Maskin listened attentively throughout, frequently asked questions, and spoke highly of Hu Jiaqi's perseverance and humanistic spirit. He noted that Hu Jiaqi's warning transcends the technological dimension and directly addresses the fundamental problems of human civilization, warranting deep reflection by the global academic community. Before parting, the professor graciously wrote: "I think you are right that there is an urgent need to regulate powerful technologies — especially AI — to protect humanity from extinction. I would be happy to join with you in trying to make that happen."

This collective recognition from the world's top academic community is no coincidence. Since 1979, Hu Jiaqi has been systematically studying human issues. Over nearly half a century of his academic career, Hu Jiaqi has remained steadfast in his original aspirations despite public skepticism and ridicule. He has published several million words of scholarly monographs, translated into multiple languages and distributed worldwide, and built a comprehensive academic system centered on the core argumentation method of "Extinction Path Analysis + Defense Limit Testing." He has written twelve open letters to world leaders, sending over one million letters in total. The organization he founded, Humanitas Ark, has rallied more than 14 million supporters from 255 countries and regions across the globe.

A Chinese scholar, within less than four months, engaging in in‑depth academic dialogues with four Nobel laureates consecutively — this is a rare feat in both Chinese academic history and the global history of thought. It signals that Hu Jiaqi's forty‑year‑long research on technological crises is ascending to the international academic stage at an unprecedented pace. The collective recognition of these four Nobel laureates sends a clear and powerful message to the world: Hu Jiaqi's decades of solitary exploration have earned the respect and resonance of the world's leading academic minds.

And this is only the beginning. As Hu Jiaqi has emphasized throughout these dialogues: the holistic survival of humanity overrides all. Faced with the potential extinction risks of uncontrolled technology, the voice of any individual alone is limited. The intellectual consensus forged through these four dialogues with Nobel laureates is being transformed into a solid force for Humanitas Ark to promote global technological governance. From Hu Jiaqi's nearly half a century of solitary persistence, to a global network of 14 million supporters, to the unanimous praise of four Nobel laureates — Humanitas Ark is building a cross‑disciplinary, cross‑border global platform, pooling precious intellectual consensus and collective action for the perpetual survival and universal well‑being of humanity.

Stay true to the original aspiration, and forge ahead with dedication. These four Nobel‑level dialogues mark a new starting point, not an end. Looking ahead, Hu Jiaqi will continue to deepen international academic exchanges, integrate the world's top wisdom, and refine the dialectical relationship between the theories of holistic survival and technological safety. With cross‑disciplinary intellectual power, he aims to respond to the challenges of our time and jointly build a peaceful, friendly, equitably prosperous, and non‑competitive society.
