What's your idea of Heaven or Afterlife?

Humans have been on earth 300,000 years. The Roman empire was 2000 years ago. WW2 was 86 years ago. Yet the earth is 4.543 billion years old. It's kind of crazy we get to exist, or even have consciousness in the first place. I personally believe in a more spiritual vs religious viewpoint, but the reality of existence as a whole is truly unfathomable.


True, very true. Especially with how ridiculous our kind has and continues to attempt eradicating certain races and ethnicity.
Do you believe once AI is self sufficient that it will just annihilate humanity?

No. I actually believe the complete opposite. I feel AI is the next evolution of humanity. I don't believe it will be self sufficient, at least not any time soon. I believe AI will be an entity that stands beside humans to help us progress forward. Things are going to get strange, that's for sure. People will lose jobs, and be forced to adapt an adjust. At the same time in the early 1900s when machinery started to take over, it also took jobs and forced people to adapt. Yet the population still continued to increase, so new advanced technology is always scary at first, but actually makes humanity advance even further into the future. I think that AI is the most advanced and amazing technology humanity has every created.

Awww that's a very optimistic view on it and I hope that does come true. I've seen too much sci-fi horror and hope we can avoid such predicaments, but never know.
Do you think AI will advance so far from us that it might prefer to create beings similar to itself and just leave us high and dry?

If that's the case the cats and dogs could progress past us, and take over/ move on. Which actually isn't too far off on a natural level. We all tend to speak to our cats and dogs in a different tone and voice then we speak to each other. We find them so adorable we even spoil them, so who is truly in control at that point? At the same time we domesticated them to be our friend. I feel AI is similar. Assuming they become sentient in the future, there will be some bad ones, but way more good ones. I don't think a sentient AI will ever be one entity. It will be millions. Some good, some bad. Similar to humans, dogs, and cats.
