Excellent post.
I am a little confused on the notion of transhumanism. Once immortality is achieved, where does everyone fit? Do we quit breeding? Do only a chosen few make the immortality cut? Do we upload on to a matrix?
And as to AI, if it is to be our descendant, why does it have a moral obligation to keep us around? What purpose would homo erectus serve in our world?
It’s curious to me that you would malign Superman, yet strive to be him, laud the hero who accepts his mortal fate, and pity him for it.
I tip my hat to you. Were I laying money in a futures market, I’d bet on you over some cloistered monk to change the world. But I’d cut you both about the same odds for life everlasting.
