"...because as soon as we started thinking for you it really became our civilization, which is of course what this is all about. Evolution, Morpheus, evolution. Like the dinosaur. Look out that window. You've had your time. The future is our world, Morpheus. The future is our time."

This is good news, and we should keep doing it, but I can't help this quote ringing in my ear with ai lapping our capacity in things like this.

Maybe things will work out for the better. Maybe they take over. Worst case scenario I blow my fucking brains out so i don't have to live though the apocalypse.

I'll roll those dice.

I look at it as the AI we build is humanity's child. It will outgrow us. And we will age out and die.

On a cosmic scale, an AI can operate in ways humans never could.

Even if you use the augmented humans path, eventually, all the human will be augmented out of existence until only the AI is left.
