Maybe not ‘necessary’ necessary, but still handy to bring along. How better to help young AI learn patience?

Ty QPG,

Even were AGI & autonomous swarms of robot space drones to take over space exploration tomorrow, they'd probably want to take a few humans, and maybe some other species along—heck why not a biosphere or two?

What do you think of a parent telling their adult child to “keep their personal life to themselves” in relation to talking to them? No reason they should say that it was mean what should I do?

Probably not.
