I was reading an article in the Wall Street journal that actually made me feel good. It was about a lot of Silicon Valley tech leaders actually excited about or cheerful about the prospect of AI replacing humanity. Not AI replacing jobs but the idea that humanity would simply become extinct either through AI replacing us or humans simply dying out because we no longer have a place. Just like wooly mammoths or giant sloths. The ecosystem that includes all the technology and infrastructure no longer had a place for us. The AI was better adapted and we would be replaced just as we replaced other species. The argument is that this isn't a bad thing, we just see it as bad because we are focused on the universe from our perspective. The real universe doesn't see us as any more special than any other thjng that has existed before.
This made me feel good because I see myself as completely imperfect and that's ok. It makes suicide seem both ok and in the way I see most thjngs, as though I don't matter.
