Good article, I agree that we definitely need to try now and its likely that if we don’t another group will take over the narrative.
I also think that it is important for people to know what they are working towards as well as away from. Imagining what a positive Singularity for them personally is like is something I think the general public should also start doing. Positive visions inspire people, we know that. To me its obvious that such a future would involve different groups with different values somewhat going their own ways. Thinking about it, that is about the only thing I can be sure of. Some people will obviously be much more enthusiastic for biological/tech enhancement than others, and of course living of earth. we agree that coherent extrapolated volition is important, its time we thought a bit about what its details are.
