The part that – look, there are all these places where there are parts of the story we don't know. Right. And so it's like how did – My general thesis is there is no evolutionary path to this. Maybe there's a guided outside alien superintelligence path for us to become superhuman and fundamentally benevolent and fundamentally radically different beings.

But there's no natural evolutionary path for this to happen. And then I don't know how this would have happened for the alien civilization.

No, but the story you're telling was we can't just leave the humans to the natural evolution because we're still like animals. We're still into status, all these crazy— But those are the things that motivate us to innovate. And if we keep innovating, at some point we will destroy ourselves with that.

directed in evolution it's like intelligent design it's something it's like there's some godlike being that's actually has to take over from evolution and guide our cultural and political and biological development no and it might not have any use for us at all it might just ignore us and let us live like the chimps do but then and then become the superior force in the planet

I thought it has to – but it has to stop us from developing this.

Yeah, I think there still are... We still have a pretty crazy geopolitical race with China, to come back to that. Sure. You know, the natural development of drone technology in the military context is you need to take the human out of the loop because the human can get jammed. Sure. And so you need to put an AI on the drone.
