Agreed, very good presentation.
What i would like to add to this final remarks:
I am even more optimistic because IMHO Maslow's Pyramid is not really applicable for humans. We can work on self-realisation any time, even when other needs (physical, safety, social, etc.) are not fulfilled yet.
The trigger point to finally seek self-realisation is very subjective and more connected to one's individual suffering.
We can come to self-realisation completely independent of technology, society, AI-Wars, Bitcoin price or our neigbor who keeps parking in the wrong spot.
