Our creativity might kill us

The end of humanity: Nick Bostrom at TEDxOxford

This speech reminds me on a car insurance sales person. He is worried about not damaging the car on test drive, but he doesn't have an answer for the driver how to avoid this.

But what is our chance if it happens by accident. Something can went wrong in an experiment.
We could create a solution to get red of all our problems by killing our life's.

Hopefully there is also one invention that can stop or reverse impact.
May be also by accident.
