Well, first I would argue that it's not even the future really. It's already happening. I think AI runs the world better than humans in many ways already. The last chapter is a little bit tongue-in-cheek. It's a little bit just me being a little bit crazy and being like, you know what, let's see how far I can take this.

One of the more tragic things I talk about in the book is that ultimately we do have to hope for something but our hopes inevitably end up causing everything to be f***ed. Everything is f***ed, which is why we need hope, but then our hopes are what cause everything to be f***ed. So it's kind of like this vicious cycle that keeps happening. And it's just kind of an inherent part of our psychology.

There's not really any way around it. So really the message of the book is like, since we can't get rid of hope, we have to just be very, very careful about what we hope for. And the last chapter is kind of my very, very careful, slightly facetious hopes, which is just that I personally think one of the cornerstones of my personal philosophy and kind of all my work in general is that humans suck.

Like we are just, we're not... Yeah. The human mind is not very well equipped to handle global, ethical, moral questions. If you look at human history, it's just full of violence and screw-ups and disasters. So my starting point is like, if there's any way we're going to kind of save ourselves from ourselves, it's going to happen... via science and technology in some form.
