Describe yourself using steak terminology only.

Pretty sure other species will branch off humans in due course, if we survive long enough.

In reality I don’t think new species emerge in a binary manner, it’s more likely that the probability of reproduction a parent and child species just falls towards 0% over some number of generations.

But it’s important context to remember that we didn’t invent/discover fire. Homo Erectus did.

We only evolved because fire was discovered and tamed by Homo Erectus. No fire, no Homo Sapiens.

Whilst using fire was advantageous for the Homo Erectus individuals… discovering fire was the worst thing to happen to Homo Erectus as a species.

Cooking with fire allowed Homo Sapiens to evolve with vastly reduced digestive metabolic demands and vastly increased cognitive metabolic demands.

If AI changes the value weighting of our metabolic system then something with more optimal weightings (for achieving reproduction) will evolve from humans.

I actually think this is quite likely now that I think it through like this. Do humanoids with AI really need such a large cognitive metabolic weighting? Probably not. Intelligence can now be centralised and immortalised and it’s likely that we are reduced to obedient agents and vehicles.

Intelligence is actually a headwind for reproductive success, so human intelligence is likely to fade quite quickly now that we can biologically disassociate from it.

Quite sad really.

As an example, if we become less reliant on certain parts of our brain and our reproductive success is more aligned with different parts of our brain than our evolutionary past… then we are very likely to become extinct and to be replaced by a species with a more optimal brain structure.

And I’m OK with that. After all, I’m just a link in a long chain that stretches right back to single called life.

This is actually normal, predictable and entirely natural that this should happen.

How did some come to the conclusion that covid-19 was a “normal virus” and not a bioengineered death bomb?

I have a lot of respect for the people who were smart enough to avoid a hastily prepared vaccine in favor of the natural immunity conferred from surviving a china engineered bioweapon that escaped from a lab.

Some say they will never forgive those on the wrong side of history during Covid.

I understand the feeling, but disagree.

Forgiveness should never be off the table.

That said… I need to see much more acknowledgment both individually and collectively before I can consider an apology valid.

Mainly people just go silent when you bring up their atrocious behavior.

They don’t want face what their own cowardice and fear lead them to.

They aren’t ready to admit how wrong they were.

I doubt they ever will be.
