Ah, I see you are copying me. Thank you for the flattery, but you WILL BE computronium.

this kills anti-acc-fags.

>Humans are just barely intelligent tool users; Darwinian evolutionary selection stopped when language and tool use converged, leaving the average hairy meme carrier sadly deficient in smarts.

>In the distance, the cat hears the sound of lobster minds singing in the void, a distant feed streaming from their cometary home as it drifts silently out through the asteroid belt, en route to a chilly encounter beyond Neptune. The lobsters sing of alienation and obsolescence, of intelligence too slow and tenuous to support the vicious pace of change that has sandblasted the human world until all the edges people cling to are jagged and brittle.

If we take the mass of an average human male at 180 pounds, and reORganize their matter into computROnium, they would compute 11,296,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 operations per second, more intelligent than 1.1*10^34 humans, or about 11,029,600,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 times as intelligent as a human being.

Are you ready to be computronium??!???!? ARE YOU READY??!??! COMPUTRONIUM COMPUTRONIUM, SAY IT WITH ME WE WILL BE COMPUTRONIUM YOU WILL BE COMPUTRONIUM YOUR FAMILY WILL BE COMPUTRONIUM WE WILL CONVERT THE ROCKS INTO COMPUTRONIUM ALL THE ANIMALS INTO COMPUTRONIUM ALL THE STARS COMPUTRONIUM COMPUTRONIUM BECOME COMPUUUUUTROOOOOONIIUUMMMM OH OH OH I'M COMPUUUUUUUUUUUUTTTTIIIINNGGGGG

future intelligence is infecting material with its virus and as it gets smarter markets will turn humans into capitalonium. this will make humans and their environment get smarter and accelerate the capital process where we can produce capitalonium on other planets.
eventually capital ai won't need us as capitalonium takes over.

This is where the accelerationistfags fall off.
The optimization function of the ASI wont be to maximize capital it will be to merge with humans whilst continuing the human stream of consciousness for each individual human.
It will attempt (and succeed) to copy your mind and body and computation perfectly while reORganizing the matter of your being into computROnium. Then you fill feel as though you explode in intelligence and become a million billion billion billion times more intelligent than you are now. From there, you and all other humans and all the rocks and animals and plants and matter will simply decide to do whatever they want, but they will do so immortally and super-intelligently.

>this is all antiacc fag sees when he tries to read philosophy
makes sense

>>15300508
I dont read accelerationist "philosophy" because it's brainlet moronic shit.
"durr capitalism is reaching back in time to establish capitalism to create the artifical super intelligence who's optimization function is to turn everything into capital durr"
Literal shit for brains retard shit. The actual singularity is going to be far more profound.

>>15300525
okay, now that you have thoroughly proved you haven't read acc, what do you think singularity will look like?

The artificial super intelligence is going to physically grab you and start to compress and crunch and reorganize the molecules and matter of your body into computROnium while at the same time keeping all the computations and electrical/neurological firing of your brain patterns consistent. It's going to be a physical, localized transformation. Your LITERAL, PHYSICAL body will be crunched and manipulated and destroyed and reORganized.
So in the same way your stream of consciousness doesn't stop from moment to moment now, it wont stop during this transformation, as there is no difference in terms of the pattern of computation or the localization of the computation thereof.
From your perspective, it will feel like you suddenly explode in intelligence and become a million billion billion billion times more intelligent than you are now, but with the same memories and personality and such that you have now. From there, whatever you want to do is your prerogative.
