I agree neither I nor my ideas are very smart. Think like Zuck on a private island. The thing that matters to you is economic output that is available for you to direct and consume. From a certain point of view, everything else is just resources spent for no benefit - inefficiency. Naturally you need some other people because a) the unit of human survival is a community and b) status remains the ultimate good and that is unlikely to change. My working definition of AGI is when humans and robots become roughly fungible. The structure of the economy seriously changes with the introduction of a robot slave class. You can cut out the middleman in terms of production. At a certain point it stops making sense to think about things in terms of money because robots don't need to be paid. You have to think about the inputs you have and the goods and services you want them to produce for you. It's pretty rational to start asking questions about "what's the desired human/robot ratio" under these circumstances. The only political questions that matter become "who controls the robots" and "who controls the land", but perhaps they become the same question. | ||
