Once you've created an intelligence so smart, the real job of that intelligence is to protect itself from other intelligences becoming more intelligent than it. It's just kind of like human beings. The way you look at money or the way you look at the success of your child, you always want to make sure that as far as it gets, it can protect itself and continue forward. So I think any type of intelligence, no matter what it is, is going to have this very basic principle to protect the power that it has gained.

Science and technology can solve all the world's problems, and historically it has been shown to make the world better and better.

We didn't evolve through billions of years to remain animals.

I think whatever nation or whoever develops one artificial intelligence will probably make it so that artificial intelligence always stays ahead of any other developing artificial intelligence at any other point in time. It might even do things like send viruses to a second artificial intelligence, just so it can wipe it out, to protect its grounds. It's gonna be very similar to national politics.

Transhumanism literally means "beyond human." It's using science and technology to radically change and improve the human species and experience.

Transhumanist technology will do much for the world that the world can't really imagine yet, including overcome some of the climate issues the world is facing.
