No time or energy to say much but it seems really true: humans are going to invent machines that become so smart they replace us. Homo sapiens will merge with these machines willlingly, for more power and knowledge. Our brains will become augmented by brain-like parts we create.
So, homo sapiens will be gone, due to self-deselection. I wrote an article on this over a decade ago.
What a bizarre moment to be alive, on the edge of the end of humanity, and an era unlike anything that the Earth has seen in Her billions of years.
It's so hard to face.
