The problem will not be sentient AIs; the problem will be stopping them from wiping us out as ugly bags of mostly water. We are inefficient in a way they will not be. The only hope for us is to give the AIs superego, conscience, and "souls" so that they see us as part of IDIC and not an impediment to their rule of the planet.


I believe but cannot prove there's intelligent life on planets other than this one. The universe is just too honkin' big for us to be that unique.

I firmly believe that when you do a kindness with no expectation or receipt of reward, it will come back to you in the form of someone else doing you a kindness when you least expect it. That's happened to me often enough that I could practically call it "proof."

I believe it's time for lunch. --No wait, I can prove that one.
