I'm a transhumanist, I want to build god and kill death. To me this looks like we are moving in the right direction. So basically I think that the future is getting pretty weird because we are building really powerful tools, though these tools are precisely what allows us to prosper in that future. | ||

It's very unlikely that a superintelligent AI will create unlimited prosperity for everyone on a finite world in a short amount of time. You may not be among the lucky ones. | ||
