As a mental pallet cleanser, let’s zoom out and time travel, visualizing people in the 25th century learning about and reflecting on the early 21st century (that’s us, right now) and marveling that we figured out how to keep humanity (and maybe ourselves) alive amidst the greatest risks ever faced by the human race. What do they observe?
My best guess is that the biographies will conclude that, up until today, the human mind was the superior technology of intelligence. Deciding what, how, when and why to do things. The human mind, so long as it played within society’s laws, was free to do as it saw fit.
But then, in the mid 2020s there was a swift societal change. The combination of artificial intelligence, the programmability of biology and chemistry, and access to hordes of data proved, in combination, superior to the paltry human mind for managing a wide variety of individual and societal systems, from personal health to biological ecosystems.
Understandable: 20th century person reasoning 40-50 years of health debauchery indulgence is better than 70-80 without.
21st century: be sure to do the hard work to hang around for what may be the most extraordinary human experience ever.
