siderealI am less worried about the singularity happening in ten years and more worried that in ten years the lights will go out and not come back on
The social version of “you are closer to being a a homeless person than to being a billionaire” is “we are closer to the middle ages than we are to the star trek future.”
PointlessSpike@sidereal I don't think that's true. There are some things that will never happen. Knowledge is too widespread, technology all around us. No, my concern isn't that we'll return to the past, it's that the future will be the same, but worse. More inequality, more control over our lives, and no hope that it can ever change.
