If you think AGI/ASI will lead to utopia or something close to it, then I would say we are one of the last unlucky humans to be born before the singularity compared to billions of years humans (or their successors) will be born afterwards. Was the invention of steam engine incredibly transformative and cool moment for the history of our species? Absolutely. Would I prefer to be living then? Sure as hell not. Likewise if I had a choice I would pick being born 200 years from now, maybe they would not be experiencing big technological leaps, but life would be better.

But what if NOW let's you experience that change and benefit from it rather than just benefit seamlessly?
