My fam owned that 1st house on right… today I am a Zillionaire.

The fraud is only just beginning..

Q-like!

Maybe the majority of people don’t want it.. people don’t like massive change, especially when no one can prove it will be change for the better.

What’s the point?

The end of human creativity.. machines dominating our every move. All of these scenarios represent massive, rapid change, seemingly with the end game of human elimination. Why would anyone want this? It seems to be the ultimate “careful what you wish for.”

This projection makes the idea of my own death a lot easier to handle.

To quote Morrissey, “Come, come, come, nuclear bomb”

Who said anything wasn’t good enough for me? That’s pretty much my point… it is good enough. Your mention of plumbing etc. is a false equivalence to what we’re talking about with AI and the Singularity. I’d rather not surrender myself completely to the machines. Seems like this is where we are and it looks kind of shitty. . I read Ray’s book and was excited… but the older I get the less excited I am about it’s premise. Relative freedom you say? Doesn’t look like freedom when everyone in the room has their head down looking at a screen and not talking to one another. More like slaves. While there are so many positives of “tech” in general and I’m alive today because of them, I find myself looking for humanity on a daily basis. I mostly see narcissism, hate, fear, manipulation and massive mediocrity being championed for the talent of being snarky, as demonstrated by your end comment. Humans gonna human I guess but apparently not for much longer.

The world and society are a mess. Tech is helping this happen… what good is all of this?
