The future will be ruled by rich transhumanists who have figured out how to augment their intelligences without augmenting the cause of evil behavior.

oh no. that will surely split her asunder.

Copypasta from last night's thread:

"Unbelievable.

This problem can be solved with 50% certainty, because there are two ways to interpret the question:

1) cost and price are the same thing, and so

C=1+C/2
1=C/2
2=C

2) cost means what store has to pay for manufactorer, price is what customer pays for store, and so

C=1+P

P is unknown, so price is unknown.

Now stop it. This is ridiculous."

Now stop it. This is ridiculous.

I wonder what happened if 'merica stopped using so much money on military and redirected it to education. The system would either become better-- or just a seriously expensive failure.

To be honest I haven't read The Diamond Age. Too bad the guy took the title, if it wasn't taken my WIP would be called The Diamond Age instead of For All Mankind.

And the post-singularity AI thing, well, I still have my doubts: They have been saying it's 15 years away for the past 60 years, and now they have stepped down from AI to scanning and emulating the conectome of insects, animals and humans, and they are too proud to admit they weren't smart enough to make Artificial Intelligence, so they say "nah j/k guys I troll, of course Whole Brain Emulation is Artificial Intelligence! It's not like we just plug in the machine without doing anything else!".

Bunch of crazy Singularitarians with too much pride...

Sad, and true.

Nobody cares about space anymore.

Well, a small percentage of the modern world do.
