Basically, look at history. Genocide, violence, war, conquest, slavery. Not all of humanity is bad. Humans have done amazing things. But it’s 2025, and we still have war and famine and genocide and huge levels of inequality. We consume, consume, consume mindlessly at all levels of the socioeconomic ladder. We destroy and pollute the environment. Corporations couldn’t care less, and then at the individual level, all people care about is accumulating resources. We are ok with having homeless people but we allow the very rich to accumulate more wealth than is imaginable. We are all guilty, regardless of socioeconomic class. Greed is in our DNA. AI may be our only saving grace. Or it may obliterate us. Either way, humanity is not on a good path…
