(MENAFN- TimesNewswire ) In the 21st century, an era of rapid technological advancement, Hu Jiaqi-a thinker from China-has consistently fixed his profound gaze upon the future of human civilization. As a social activist, scholar of human issues, and successful entrepreneur, he has persevered for over forty years along a dual track of academia and business, adhering to his mission of saving humanity and sounding a wake-up call for this short-sighted age.

In 1979, at the age of 17, Hu Jiaqi made a vow not only to pursue personal success but also to seek a path for the destiny of humankind. He founded enterprises, becoming a pioneer in the smart building industry and leading his company to NASDAQ listing. Simultaneously, he delved into academia, publishing works such as Saving Humanity, with over 4 million written words translated into multiple languages, attracting global attention.

In Saving Humanity, he clearly stated that technology is a double-edged sword, and its unlimited development could lead to human extinction within this century. He systematically demonstrated the existential threats posed by technologies such as gene editing, nanotechnology, and AI, proposing that humanity must achieve“Great Unification” and establish a world government to control the direction of technology development.

In 2018, Hu Jiaqi founded Save Human Action Organization (now renamed Humanitas Ark), transforming personal concern into collective action. The organization has now united over 13 million members and supporters worldwide, spanning more than 250 countries and regions. He calls for the regulation of high-risk technologies, puts forward the principle that“the collective survival of humanity above all else”, and advocates for global governance mechanisms to prevent existential risks.

Hu Jiaqi actively engages in dialogue with top global scholars, including Nobel laureates. Hawking's warning that“AI could be the best or the worst thing for human civilization” aligns with Hu Jiaqi's ideas. He disseminates his concepts through writings, speeches, online platforms, and other channels, striving to promote public awareness and rational global technology governance.

As Hegel said,“A nation that has people who look up at the stars has hope.” Hu Jiaqi is precisely such a pioneer-grounded in pragmatism yet always gazing at the stars. His ideas are no longer marginal warnings but an urgently needed sobering tonic for our times. His story proves that saving humanity is not a slogan but a great endeavor in which we must all participate.
