We will likely be unimaginably stupid and poor compare to people the of the future. I’m trying to understand why they’d want to revive us, but in doing so I’m trying to understand why our world has as much compassion in it as it does.
Somewhat off-topic, but have there been any OB posts on this issue? Economic inequality continues to increase on Earth, yet we seem to be treating each other better than we have in the past. Rich nations could more easily enslave poorer ones than ever before in history, but beyond some wealth redistribution (from the rich, no less), that isn’t being done. However future inhabitants of Earth become fabulously wealthy, it may be incorrect to assume they will abuse their power over poorer, stupider people, or pull the plug on our frozen heads.
