We needn't fear super intelligence per se.
The more I know the more beauty revealed. The void left by ridding ignorance almost always filled by compassion, tolerance, empathy, humility. The pursuit of understanding rewarded by awe.
Set forth in proper directions super intelligence can reveal more knowledge, more beauty then we dare dream. Perhaps even more of what we mean by, humane.
The real threat is to apply super intelligence to our current way of life. The real threat is our current way of life.
“Money flows faster. Economists assure us we grow richer.
Electronic gadgets and entertainments distract us.
Real-world families and communities disintegrate.
Earth and democracy die.
Ruled by soulless corporations that value money more than life,
we get more money, less life.
We face an epic choice:
People power or corporate power;
living communities or corporate colonies;
democracy or corporatocracy;
more life for all or more money for the few.”
