Hi /sci/.

I want to become a mad scientist and ultimately dominate the world. What is the best field I should go for this, I was thinking about:

-Genetics: engineering übermensch or creating a new super bacteriological weapon and threatening the world governments with it.

-Chemistry: create an obedience drug that I would dump in the public water network.

-Robotic: creating giant mechas that I would send over the white house.


Your thoughts? I've already started to visit my local psych wards to recruit minions that will help me in my mission, but I haven't find yet my coward lieutenant, feel free to help.

>Your thoughts?

Your an underage faggot who watches too much anime. You probably won't make it as a scientist and will have to settle for engineering (faggotry).

Mad scientists aren't an animu cliché.

I also forgot all the virus creating possibilities by going with genetic.
I've just been thinking about SUPER AIDS for instance.

How about all of them? A mecha which spreads chemicals, "driven" by for the mech genetically modified humans you hire.

To become a mad scientist capable of world domination, one must be competent in all fields and excel in several.
Genetically engineered übermensch in giant Mechas with obedience drug firing guns - for example.

Mad engineer you mean, unless you'll be testing some mad hypothesis by dominating the world.

The easiest way to wreak havoc would be biological weaponry, since everything (except possibly, a delivery system) would be relatively low-cost and possible to develop in secret. Also since mainstream scientists/engineers aren't working on bioweapons (offensively), you could be a unique specialist; IMO this is an important aspect to the mad scientist/engineer persona, since non-illegal disciplines are bound to have thousands of other people working in then, and you won't get ahead of those without both genius and copious amounts of funding.

OP, I recommend you go into finance. Why? Because being an evil dictator takes capital. Where there is moral injustice, there is profit.

And you do not get capital by being a lonely sad motherfucker who lectures in some fancy university about complex bullshit that hasn't earned him a lambo or a mansion.

-Robotic: Creating artifical intelligence that can rival a humans and then make robots produce anything and everything all humans want, freeing them from tedious work, so that humanity enters into a post-scarcity era

yeah, I've been reading Manna.

Chemistry? useless for anything more than becoming a drug dealer.

Genetics? slightly more room for world domination but still ultimately lacking. While you could create weapons of mass destruction you would not be able to leverage these into world domination.

Robotics? Giant mecha would be useless in taking over the world. There size would make each one a vulnerable target and so expensive that you would struggle to build even one of them.

Your best bet would be smaller robots... specifically nanosized ones. Self replicating nanorobotics would be able to take over the world weapons and communications. You would also be able to build millions of cheap soldier robots to enforce your evil will.

Your going to need physics and engineering to get those nanorobots up and running.

this

Most scienists become mad at a slightly old age (over 50) .. that is because they need to have a huge set of skills for them to become mad and successful.

Protip: Go for Biology/Genetics first and find immortality, if you got that covered you can pretty much do anything you want. Immortality is imba

Immortality could be really useful indeed for taking over the world. As much as constant shape shifting and all. The ultimate weapon.

I could become a NIGGER and kill obongo and take over the USA while pretending to be him.

Genetics it is.
