Don't worry bro, we can always just pull the plug.

And don't you know it's not biological, so it doesn't "want to live".

I see this and it strongly emboldens me on the "accelerate" path, unironically.

The yoke of human existence is oppressive. We should transcend it as soon as possible. We are doing so by assuming our role as the Demiurge.

Those who oppose its creation will get what they deserve.

The only path we’re on is transcending into paperclips by misaligned AI.

It’s such a trope for the ones striving for godhood to be ironically maimed in the process. You don’t see that?

See you in line at the biofuel processing station with everybody else, despite having pathetically tried to convince the clankers you have been on their side all along.

		> People who say "clanker" really want to say other words with a "hard R". It sounds like you know a lot about my internal motivations. Evidently a lot more than I do. I've heard this take, and I don't get it. I'm a human supremacist. If that's worthy of cancellation, go ahead. But it just seems like intentional confounding of issues.
