What’s more terrifying when we realize what’s behind emerging AGI?

HAL 9000 … cold, practical, logical, calculating, confident

Barclay … unsure, goofy, secretive, sexually curious, wants to be your friend (at all cost)

I remember watching that episode as a little kid and thinking how I would love to be connected to a super computer like that. Then I got older and learned about the idea of putting a brain in a computer and thought that would be better. Recently I listened to the Bobivers and now I think I’ve found my dream, digitize my brain, load it onto a super computer, load that on a von Neumann ship, and shoot me into deep space far away from humanity.

I’ve always felt like I don’t belong, hell if I hit the lottery I’d buy a missile silo or something and turn it into a home. Not because I’d be paranoid, I’d take steps to make sure no one knew I won, no because I want to be cut off from people as much as possible.
