Reply to How will you spend your time if/when AGI means you no longer have to work for a living (but you still have your basic needs met such as housing, food etc..)? by DreaminDemon177
Well I think one of the most motivating things about life today is the struggle towards the goal; the light at the end of the tunnel, if you will. I wish to play my part in that.
But when all is said and done and utopia comes into fruition, while I do think many will rejoice, I have a feeling that there will also be many who will fall into a depressed, nihilistic state of mind. I don’t agree nor intend to follow either.
At the point in which humanity not only realizes our own creation in its maturity, but pass the torch to it; when we rid ourselves of inequality, oppression, hunger, suffering; that is when I’ll either do one of four things, or all of them: let out the biggest sigh of relief and resign myself to simply watch from the distance from here on out in content, pursuing whatever endeavor meets my fancy; get a ship and explore the universe on my own or with others; integrate into the AI hivemind; or kill myself, as I’d be able to rest knowing that humanity—or whatever may be by then—will be A-Ok 👌

You know. I can see how Ai helps me as a writer, but it takes some of the writing process away from me, which makes me sad. Really easy to capitalize on though.

Reply to What do you expect the most out of AGI? by Envoy34
That’s a good question I hadn’t considered. I suppose it would be the scientific and artistic renaissance to come in its wake. It would be good to see the global human standard for living increase as well. But I think past all of that, I would just be satisfied that we made AGI simply for the fact that we made it.

Apart of what makes life interesting is the struggle. What makes us seek meaning is the inherent lack of it. To be omniscient would be amazing, but once we know everything there is to know, create everything there is to create, etc… Then what?

Undecided. It just depends on who I’ll be when the opportunity arises. Also, I’d need to understand all the pros and cons. While opening my third and fourth eye in a super-intelligent hive mind sounds more liberating than ever, there’s something to be said about loneliness and content in the silence. Beauty can be found in darkness itself, just as ignorance may be bliss.
