We are an animal no matter how you want to believe or not, species die and get extinct it's a normal way of life, but when we are the cause of an
unbalanced way of life it becomes wrong, universe has a rule and it's called balance.

The AI will be the first human, we will always be a monkey.
So I understand you hate humans.
1. We don't follow hte balance.
2. We have a illusory self-image of being something more than a animal.
Our legacy is to embed into AI that which we cannot be ourselves. Or something... I struggle to understand your angle.
I've never thought of humans as perfect or ideal. I grew up hating us. I grew up thinking it was all going to hell. 12 years ago I read all those
studies about how we were destroying nature and how the Anthropocene was the causative agent in the sixth massive extinction.
But I grew out of that. I can't say exactly how it happened. Maybe it's because I'm older than 30. Anyway, I think expectations are insane and people
are afraid. Fears are rampant.
What I think is it's going to take a lot more than your stupid faith all is going to drmatically change in september. Humans are so much more than
anybody wants to give credit for. It's going to take a lot more than AGW and an asteroid impact and global thermonuclear war. Believe it or not but
there's no going back now. Humans arne't just going to roll over and die. YOu're naive, sir. Whoever you're. Only way you really get what you
apparently want is if the whole world is destroyed. Sorry but nobody is going to be a hunter/gatherer if the world is destroyed. We'll be worm food,
and that's assuming whatever destroys the planet is merciful and allows the worms to survive.
I don't have confident I'll be alive in a month or a year or a decade. I certainly won't be alive in 100 years. But I can tell you 100 years from now
wealthy people will be actively traveling to earth orbit and possibly to the moon. If you can imagine people doing business in earth orbit or on the
moon, as opposed to just exploring or researching for a government agency, you're on the right track. In 200 years we might be sending probes or
people to other stars. The coutnries which exist today will still mostly be around in 200 years. Some things might be switched around, but the old
ideals of the west and east shall still be there, even if hidden beneath something else. All of this is going to happen no matter what happens in my
life, good or bad. The thing which gives me hope is no matter how bad things can seem in some corners of the world, humanity is still fundamentally
hopeful and enduring and there're plenty of beuatiful children still being born to strong and respectable people.
So I reject your hate and return with a volley of hope. Seethe with rage sir. The hope is genuine. I'm being real right now.
